If you'll all recall, a while ago I was asking about my supposedly bad starter. Turned out my battery was dead as when I jumped it from the Honda it fired right up without a hitch. I know I need to g

Not if the lights are off when the ignition is off. If it was a short, they wouldn't go out with the trans in neutral. Look for some problem with the switch or the mechanism that actuates it (take ou

How old is the battery itself, John? And is the alt/gen "putting out" what it should? Cap'n Bob '60 :{)

Thanks to all who replied to my message about my dead battery. Last night I removed the Interstate battery and pried off the covers. It looked new but was purchased in 2003, and probably because the

Yep....there we go. Batt. has just been hangin' around too long, unused. And of course, once "powered up", it's got it's own shelf life basically unused. It's like having new (but unwrapped) tires mo

Does anybody have any ideas why my battery keeps going dead? It was new in October, my volt gauge shows 14/15 volts when running, 13 with everything on. I thought the alternator (jap) was going bad s

I have seen batteries that seem to take a charge, show 12 volts on the multimeter and then inexplicably fail under heavy load. After doing too many diagnostics, found out that while under any load th

Wouldn't a fairly big short drain the battery pretty fast. Of course the short would have to be pre fuse and thick enough not to melt away. ([cough], another reason to have an amp meter)) It seems ev

I had a similar problem once. A brand new Die Hard kept dying. Three batteries later I found that the bolt going into the side post terminal was a hair too long. Even though it was tight (in the thre
