Thanks Pete, I’m just wondering as I’ve got some random electrical faults and errors on the dash that are stopping my car from running and even cranking and I’ve had a few people tell me that low voltage could be the reason so I appreciate you telling me what yours it at |

Mine is saying 12.45 volts with the car fully off and 12.10 volts with the ignition on. Can’t get an engine on one as it won’t crank. Are these low?[/quote] |

Actually it seems to have gotten even lower overnight somehow with nothing been used on the car. 12.25 volts now with everything off |

[/quote] You need to know why it won’t crank……….voltage looks ok…..suggest you either swop thé battery for a known good one……or boost the present one……to see if the starter is working……& take it from there…. …… FL2 SD4 HSE Lux Auto MY 2012— current D2 TD5 HSE Man MY 1999 470kmls….gone 2014 ….lovely engine..chassis rotten D1 300TDI Man MY 1996 56kmls….gone 1999…D2 much better Wife’s FL1 1.8P MY 2001 32kmls …gone 2007…has Mini since. |

If it's dropped to 12.25v overnight with with just the alarm on then it would seem you have a fairly dead cell, can you read the volts when you press the start button? I wonder if you are actually getting power to the starter, this may be your problem but if you have low voltage there may be a circuit that disallows power to starter. my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis
