Eventually it will fail to start. Not knowing WHY it reads 11 V, it might even stop running while going down the road. Get it fixed.
Good show. I hope you won't be too disappointed when that gas mileage number doesn't hold up long term.
Meaning what exactly ? That you can't park the car where you have access to 120 VAC power ? That has nothing to do with what I said.
Which will give you a pseudo-balance. A proper balance must be done one cell at a time........or in parallel with a fuse for each cell.
Yep. Sounds like a wheel speed sensor going bad. Probably on one of the front wheels.
Just for future reference, it is NOT necessary to remove or disconnect the 12 V battery just to charge or test it with a voltmeter.
None of the "reconditioners" can really reclaim a failed battery.....although some will claim otherwise. Regardless of what procedure you use, it...
It is not nice to tell lies, Jerry.
AND your protests are WAY overstated too. If done right, checking the battery is quick, easy and cheap. And in the process of doing that, one...
Even "new" things sometimes fail. A multi-meter would be really helpful in finding the problem. A loose or corroded connection at the FAR end of...
Why did you NOT put this at the end of the other thread ???? Scattering discussions like this all over the place in fragmented threads just...
Well you did NOT say that before. Of course, that should be fixed first.
THEY test it with an external load applied to see how "healthy" the battery is. Testing the voltage with no load doesn't tell you a lot.
It would be REALLY nice if this was continued at the end of your ORIGINAL thread so we wouldn't have to ask the same questions all over again....
Does that mean that the problem went away ? The actual battery NEVER gives out 13.8 volts. That is the charging system you are measuring.....when...
BUT.....it certainly won't hurt anything. It is made by the same people who make the oil for the brand new shiny engines, which is the situation...
You NEED to get over this obsession with the battery posts. A bad connection there will NOT be selective about what current it allows to...
Don't confuse him with facts. His mind is already made up. Obviously he knows a lot more than the engineers at the oil companies and car makers...
Obviously. But the person who checks all 4 tires to see which one(s) actually need air certainly should know. Right ?? It is good to make note of...
Any "seasonal" need to add air ONLY because of temperature differences occurs at, or a few hours after, the coldest point in the cycle. Not the...
