Chevrolet Captiva 2010 0 miles
I have had a diagnostic run on the body control module, the battery replaced and the tracking system removed and the problem persists. When unlocking or locking the vehicle or switching on the head lights the window washer motor comes on. In such cases the hooter stops working and the windshield wipers if in use will also stop when the head lights are turned on
P. S simply the computers are not turning the cooling fan on when they should and will remove old cars off the road and put out for recycling and they can build a replacement , what you are dealing with is the 1st of many problems in mostly all car makes although the Captiva alternator is too close to the exhaust manifold. We just take what god gives us and be happy for what we have... chill out as cars have no feelings so don't waste your emotions on a piece of metal. TO MUCH INFO COVER then battery's low volts or amps
List of problems are 1. Alternator repair or replace 2. Clean all dirty connections check currents 3. 3vt battery replacement on fob 4. 12vt battery replacement.
