'92 discovery v8i
The charge warning light came on and yesterday when the ignition was off. Started, light went off and drove okay until got home but now when attempting to turn the key the alarm goes off (which never happens normally as it is usually left in "valet" mode), the engine does not start. Attempted to charge the battery in situ, charger says battery requires a charge but it doesn't seem to be taking it.
Will try swapping battery later (need to get hold of one first), I suspect alternator problems but am looking for any advice.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
