2006 E350 4matic Battery Light On and ABS light on
Hello everyone, i have an issue with my 2006 Mercedes E350 4matic
After driving the car for a few miles, the RED Battery light comes with and ABS light comes on and Accessories like A/C and vent turn off.
What i did was :
1. Replaced Auxiliary battery (Oreily autoparts)
2. Replaced the Auxiliary battery relay (Oreily autoparts)
3. Checked Main battery and tests Good, checked Auxiliary battery and tests Good.
4. Checked all other fuses and none are blown.
5. Checked the charging system and alternator, and checks out good.
Does anyone have any other suggestions on what to do?
The main battery was checked at Oreilly autoparts with their tester and checked good.

Well it's either the alternator or the batteries so something didn't really check out. You can get the voltage on the display by switching to temperature and hitting the reset button 3 times with the car on but without the engine running. Either there's a short in the battery or the voltage regulator in the alternator is slowly going bad.

I did turn on the voltmeter on the display, when car is not running, voltmeter shows 12.6 volts, as i start the car, voltmeter goes to 14.1 volts and i keep driving with A/C on, no red battery light, no abs light on, as soon as i rev up the car or going uphill at 3000 rpm or more, the voltmeter shows voltage drop from 14.1 to 12.3 and thats when battery light comes on and abs light comes on and A/C turns off and vent turns off..
The auxiliary battery AGM i bought at oreilly, im thinking thats the culprit? or is it the alternator? main battery checks out fine
