Your alternator may be on its way out. The red light tells me there are times when there is no power going to the battery. My suggestion is get it looked after or it will let you down on the road as the battery will die with the lights and engine drawing a lot of power.

Hi my ignition light comes on an the steering gose stiff air bag light came on abs light came then when i stopped the car it would not start again but it did not effect my light

Have a load test done on the battery . Check battery posts and terminals are shiny clean and tight.. Check the alternator drive belt condition and tension because if it drives both the alternator and the power steering pump it indicates a belt problem.

Battery warning light came on while driving then later went off. Voltage at battery was 13-14+ then only 12-13 when light went back on later.

Try taking the cables off the battery terminals and cleaning them with a battery brush. Then make sure they are tight when you put them back on. They may not have been tightened properly when the new battery was installed. If that doesn't work take the battery back to where you bought it and have them test it under load. It may be new but it may have one cell that is weak. If that checks good then I would start the car and remove the positive battery terminal. Use your multimeter from the ground to positive terminal to make sure the voltage regulator is putting out enough voltage.

Esp warning light problem

If the tires are different sizes, that can cause the light to come on. Other causes are discussed on pages 28 and 173 of the manual:

Battery warning light, handbrake light going on and off

You could have a alternator problem. When the alternator stops charging the battery you are running on just the battery. When the battery gets weak a lot of weird things starts happening. Have your alternator tested.

While driving, all warning lights on dash suddenly were lit. When I stopped the car, it wouldn't start again and sounded as though the battery was dead.

Probably the alternator died, then used up all the power in your battery to keep the car running.
Have your alternator tested and maybe replaced. The battery needs tested also.

Hope this helps
