    get your battery checked and see what that finds..
    If that doesnt find anything. possibly check alternator and belt.

    my battery light has been flashing and sometimes stays on for a few month now

    Got the alternator and battery checked this morning at an auto elec and they are both fine.

    So basically, now i have to fook around with everything i have installed checked all cabling for everything as they it will be either a live cable or earth cable problem somewhere in the car and it will be shorting, hence the warning light flashing

    so basically if you have anything electrical installed, checked all the cables etc etc

    hope this helps?
