Do you mean 9 months.......or 9 YEARS ? Big difference. Of course if the dome light is on all the time the battery will go dead in a couple of...
Yes. And yes......but only "specific" because of the size and type of posts. Any "exact replacement" should be fine. Ask the dealer what they will...
Consider yourself lucky. My C won't stay in "EV" above 5 MPH.
How long ago was "used to" ? It might be WAY hotter out now than it was then, running the AC harder and using more power.
I agree. Mostly because 11.3 volts with little or no load indicates a DEAD batttery. Make sure that your new one is fully charged and check the...
The odds are extremely high that the polarity was reversed. The odds also are high that it will NOT run again with a proper jump. Towing to the...
You should definitely check the battery cooling fan. "Fixing" by replacing only the really bad cells is a band aid solution.......which is likely...
The car is 15 years old. Just out of curiosity, how many miles does it have on it ? Unless there is some evidence of excessive oil usage, you...
AND.....exactly how did you "fix" the hybrid battery ? While you were doing that, did you test the 12 V battery too ??
Back to the original question: NO, a failed 12 V will not "damage" the HV battery. It might cause it to not fully charge for a while. It might...
NO, sorry but it is YOU who is DUMB. That number in your other car is just an approximation, and so it the gas gauge. I'll bet when that number...
I think you should not "fix" it if it isn't broken. A LOT of vehicles go over 200K miles and never touch some of the things that are "popular"...
There is no magic. Things like that likely will do more damage than good when applied to a brand new battery. AND then if you wait too long, until...
As long as it will physically fit......and has the right connector. I recently replaced a battery in a cordless phone. The new one LOOKED the...
No. If it will physically fit and the posts are right, it will be just fine. Minor differences in capacity are meaningless.
YOU can "get past" it however you please. YOU are in total control. Now that you know how it works, YOU can let it go as long as you please...
Stand alone Garmins are cheap, work much better and now have free map updates. And you do not have to have a continuous cell signal to use the...
THIS. The gas gauge is designed to help prevent you from being stupid. Go with the flow. Don't BE stupid.
No. No need to go overboard the other way. How long after the charging did it sit before you measured 12.57 ? It is probably OK.
This is likely true. BUT the entire 12 V SYSTEM might not be "fine". ALL of the basic elements need to be checked.....connections and...
