What does the red light with a battery symbol indicate in the Mercedes A-Class?
Years 2018-2024

Answer

If the red battery icon on the dashboard of our Mercedes A-Class has lit up, it means that the battery is having problems during the charging phase. The problem is most likely caused by a malfunction of the alternator, a device subject to a lot of wear and tear as it is constantly rotating. Replacing the alternator requires a cost of at least 400 euros.
