Q: Battery warning popped up for Hyundai Accent 200
I have a 2008 Accent, The battery warning kept coming on while driving and replaced a new battery but warning popped up again? I turned on the heater and the rear defroster on. Once the warning light came on, now even if the rear defroster is not on my battery warning light comes on. Sometimes when the warning light is on the rear defroster does not work. What could it be?
My car has an automatic transmission.
