I've posted this on the other forum but hoping for some more input/thoughts:
When braking I get a very fleeting message on the dash, at first i couldn't catch the message. However, its started staying on longer, the message is 'Check System' with a battery icon next to it, the red charging light doesn't isn't coming on. I've felt I've had a battery issue for a few weeks so changed it three days a go, the alternator is about 6 months/1500 miles old (though a reman). Serpentine belt was changes at the same time as the alternator.
Using a DMM I'm measuring 14.2v when running, grounds I can see look okay and there's no codes. My previous Accord had a failed brake switch but that threw up a code. An obvious cause I suppose would be a brake bulb fault or bad fitting but I can't see anything (need to do some more digging), could be another alternator issue or voltage regulator. Not sure??
