My vauxhall vectra warning light-steering wheel with exclamation mark-comes on during normal driving as well the battery light and abs needles your speedometer rev drop. WHY?

1. Low Battery Voltage:

- If the battery voltage is too low, it can cause various electrical components in the car to malfunction, including the steering wheel warning light, battery light, ABS needles, speedometer, and rev counter.

- Check the battery terminals for any corrosion or loose connections. Clean the terminals if necessary and reattach them securely. If the battery is old or faulty, it may need to be replaced.

2. Faulty Alternator:

- The alternator is responsible for recharging the battery while the engine is running. If the alternator is faulty, it may not be able to generate enough power to supply the electrical components in the car, including the steering wheel warning light, battery light, ABS needles, speedometer, and rev counter.

- Have the alternator tested by a qualified mechanic to see if it is working properly.

- If the alternator is faulty, it will need to be repaired or replaced.

3. Electrical System Problems:

- There may be a fault in the car's electrical system, such as a short circuit or a faulty wire, which is causing the warning lights and gauges to malfunction.

- Have the electrical system inspected by a qualified mechanic to identify and repair any faults.
