0278D?

ItsGary · 10-05-2018, 04:04 PM

I've recently heard a weird chirp/flutter from my engine bay around 100km

I posted a video of it in one of the E9X Facebook Groups, someone suggested it's the bearing for the alternator. Thought he was joking and I scanned the car, had a code that said just Alternator. Cleared all the codes started the car up, turned it off and scanned again had this code in ISTA

Code; 278D
Description: BSD; Alternator: Missing

How do I go on about fixing this?

Update: Replaced the Alternator. Code never returned.
