    i just replaced my alternator. the dash lights would come on one at a time every second and such as i was driving and the battery light was fadding on. if you get dash lights when its parked i dunno if it'd be the alt.

    Hi, I do not know much about 850's, but sounds like your alternator is going bad or maybe something with the battery too. I know when mine alternator did, lights started popping up on the dashboard in my 740. Hope this helps.
