I have a 2002 mitsubushi montero sport. The brake/battery light won't go off. I replaced the battery yesterday and car starts and stays running but lights seem a little dim and the dang brake/battery indicator lights on dash are still on..Help

have it shut off by your local auto store and see if comes back on.if not problem solved

yea hey i had this happen to me, if your brake and check engine light come on at the same time its your alternator if not it could just be your battery

THERE ARE MANY POSSIBLE CONDITIONS THAT COULD PREVENT YOURCAR FROM STARTING. 1. NUTERAL SAFETY SWITCH IF THE CAR HAS AN AUTOMATICTRANSMISSION. 2. CLUTCH POSITION SWITCH IF THE CAR HAS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION.3. BRAKE PEDAL SWITCH. MANY NEWER VEHICLES HAVE A SWITCH ON THE BRAKE PEDAL ANDIF THE PEDAL IS NOT DEPRESSED WHILE TRYING TO START THE CAR, THE CAR WON'TSTART. ANOTHER POSSIBLILITY IS THE SECURITY SYSTEM. DOES THE CAR HAVE ASECURITY CHIP IN THE KEY? THESE ARE SOME OF THE MOST COMMON REASONS THAT A CARWON'T START FOR NO APPARENT REASON. HOPE THIS HELPS.

I have the same problem few days ago, and still didn't find any solution. Can any one please help?????7

Pull the terminals off the battery and buff everything to a shine. Then try it.

Check system for shorts. I have a 02 Sport that I am on my 6th alternator since last November, 2010. The last time, my car broke down outside of Natchez and I had a shade tree mechanic work on the car. He found several corroded & frayed ground wire connections. I don't know if this will solve my problem, but it's probably worth the check.

when that happens it means the alternator is going out have it checked

Please don't forget to rate....thanks-
