SOURCE: vauxhall astra car running ok but battery light

Hi if the battery light remains on whilst driving this indicates that the battery isnt charging at full capacity this usually means that the alternater needs replacing but its also worth getting the battery tested as this could also be the problem but the chances are the alternater needs replacing.

Let me know how you get on or if you need further assistance ok

The easiest way is to see a Opel dealer and read out fault codes with Tec II.

Spanner showing on dash when engine running vauxhall vectra c

VECTRA CAR WITH SPANNER WARNING LIGHT This Vauxhall Vectra car with spanner warning light illuminates or flashes yellow. Light will illuminate for around 3 seconds when the ignition is switched on. If the fault light illuminates whilst the engine is running, this signifies a fault within the engine or gearbox electronics system. The system will switch to emergency mode where fuel consumption may increase and the vehicles drivability reduced. A Vauxhall workshop must be consulted. If the light flashes whilst the engine is running, this signifies a fault within the electronic immobiliser system and the engine will not be able to be restarted.

Vauxhall astra 1.4 16v Idles fine but will not rev

Some cars with an ecu have a default setting whereby they run but only at idle. Go to your local Vauxhall dealer, look sweet and ask the service people if they can offer any idea, I mean the mechanics not the counter staff who generally don't know a handbrake from a halfshaft.
Or go on line and scour the astra owners helplines to see if its a common problem.
Don't spend a penny in a garage without checking all possible areas first. Like the other answer, it may just be a cable or electrical plug come off.

Igot a vauxhall astra 1.8 sri igot a light cum on the dash its a car with a spanner threw it when on the engine idles bad

This is your mechanical fault light and the lack of power is the car going into limp mode to protect the engine and its components.
Have a garage run a diagnostic check to find the fault code and the fault.
Hope this helps
