I have a problem with my 850. About a week ago, the car started to crank very slowly during cold weather. In addition, I started the vehicle and none of the gauges moved. I shut off the car and restarted it, and all the gauges worked. On another start-up, all the warning lights came on and stayed on. Again, after a few minutes all the lights went out. The battery is only two months old and I'm not sure if I have a bad battery, or an alternator or other problem. I put the battery on a charger and everything was fine for a few days. However, today, the gauge situation happened again.


I could use some expertise to solve this problem.
