My 2011ML350 has been blowing light bulbs weekly/monthly. Now my (ABS, ESP Currently unavailable) is on. My brake pads and rotors all look good and I cannot locate an issue. Can anyone educate me how to correct what is happening? I have read a low voltage issue which I have previously thought it was a battery issue but is there another component which could affect this?
Abs/esp not currently available turned on

A bad alternator can create low voltage issues. Check the running voltage of the battery is 13.8v to 14.5v.
Also check battery voltage first thing in the morning before starting. It needs to be 12.4v minimum.
