My Car lights all blacked Out Please help

Post by Sheikh Mustafa »

I was driving my car today then all of a sudden the signals and the lights blacked out. They are not working at all. even the emergency lights are all off within a second.


Any Idea what might have burned and how much it can take me to fix. Its my first test as a sheikh.

either the fuse box, where one of them burned out, or your alternator is finished. Most likely the alternator.

There are forums where there are expert mechanics whom you can inquire about the problem. Taking picture/video to post would help.

The thing with alternator is that the car will continue to keep going until the battery is drained, and it will work again if you charge the battery.

Either two ways only.

1 It is your battery that is causing the problem. Yes Gaariga waa socdaa because of the alternator already give some power on.

2. It is your alternator is about to die or some belt is loosen inside the alternator.

I usually save much hassle by changing the alternator. Keep the power up the next 19 month. How is that?
