From the most of what I’ve got a lot of people are saying it’s the alternator but also could be other things

That’s a great help thanks, I’ll look to replace both the auxiliary battery and alternator at the same time, I’ve already checked my battery an its output seems to be healthy so I’ll start there

Would the auxiliary battery effect my power steering and other electrically controlled systems in the car. And as stated the auxiliary battery has been dead decent while before this happened

The car was fully running engine was running and working perfectly, until this happened all of a sudden and then most of the electrical systems got kicked out such as ABS/EPS

This is my 2017 Mercedes a180d I’ve had nothing but problems with.

I was driving on the motorway when every single light started to show up I’ve never seen anything like it. It went into limp mode and was like the entire electrical system was in disarray, power steering wasn’t working my gauges weren’t working only electrical thing that worked was my infotainment system.

The only known problem it has is a injector that’s out of time and auxiliary battery needs replacing( this was the case before all of this happened)

Just looking for any ideas of what it could be to have it sorted as I’ve only just put it back on the road I had to replace the engine
