Electrical faults can be very dangerous and if you think your car has an electrical issue, you must get it repaired as soon as possible.

An illuminated warning light could mean that your car is unsafe to drive. Car warning lights follow a traffic light system with green indicating your system is fully operational, amber indicating a minor issue and red indicating a significant or dangerous fault. If a red warning light comes on on your dashboard, you should stop driving as soon as it is safe to do so and get your car checked out by a trusted mechanic.
To avoid the most likelihood of electrical problems in your car, it’s important to regularly check the battery and inspect the wiring and connections. Ideally, a mechanic should inspect your battery with the car’s service, especially before a long journey or during extreme weather conditions.
An intermittent electrical fault is a problem that is only present at some times but not others. This can make it difficult to diagnose as the issue might not be present when the mechanic inspects the car.

If your car has an intermittent electrical fault, you should take it to an experienced garage that has dealt with these kinds of problems before. You can find an experienced and trustworthy mechanic in your local area using Approved Garages.
