Hey appreciate your input! Looks like we might be onto something with this sensor microprocessor. Good to know someone's had a similar experience, makes me feel less alone in this, haha. My Toro's racked up a smooth 176646 km since my last service, with no major issues until now. It's a tad bit worrying but I hope it's nothing too major. I'll definitely check the electrical system specs as you suggested before heading back to my workshop. They better not hit me with a bill that steep, though... the last thing I need is a dent in my wallet! Thanks again for the advice. I'll let you know how it goes. Cheers!
Hey, no problem at all, we're all here to help each other! Having gone through something similar with my Doblo, I totally get your concern. Motor issues can often sneak up on you, even with the best-maintained cars. And yeah, those steep bills are no one's! Here's hoping your workshop is a bit more wallet-friendly. My issue was sorted after the battery sensor fix, didn’t face any problem since then. I'd suggest you take your Toro in for a check sooner rather than later, though, just to be on the safe side. Electrical problems have a nasty habit of escalating quickly if left unchecked. Do keep us posted on how it goes. Feel free to reach out if you need more info or have more questions. Best of luck with your Toro! Let's hope it's a simple fix. Cheers!
Hey, your words are ringing true. Yeah, you're right about motor issues sneaking up, I feel like these problems just come out of nowhere! Well, your experience gives me a bit of a calm feeling, knowing that after the fix, your issues were resolved. So, I'm hoping a similar fix might do the trick for my Toro as well. I'm taking your advice to heart and heading to the workshop first thing tomorrow. Better safe than sorry when it comes to electrical problems, right? Absolutely, I'll keep you in the loop on what happens. I might need your guidance again if things get complicated, appreciate your generous offer. Thank you again. Let's cross our fingers for that simple fix. Cheers!
Hey there! I've encountered a similar issue with my 2017 Fiat Doblo back in the day. I'm no mechanical whizz, but do have some experience tinkering around with cars. The issue turned out to be a defective microprocessor in the battery sensor, like you suspected. I took my Doblo down to my local workshop, and they fixed it up for me. It set me back about 315 Euro, a bit steep, but worth it to get the issue resolved. Check your car's specific model and its electrical system specifications. I think that might help you troubleshoot a bit more before heading to the mechanic. Hope this helps and best of luck with your Toro!
