Those sound like seriously defective batteries, unless there's something wrong with your charging system. So how do you kill them? can you share the secret? I think I'm on my third battery, and I've only paid for the first one. If you bring in a dead battery before the warranty expires, they'll give you a brand new one off the shelf. Wal-Mart has a great battery replacement warranty, too. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.īy believing all possible evil of evil men. I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters. Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence. Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for. There’s trouble - it's time to play the sound of my people. Jump the battery, let it charge for a bit (a home charger/starter is a handy thing to own) and get to a shop or the aforementioned stores. Sometimes they can confirm suspicions (the don't come on at all, are very very dim, or dim greatly when trying to start the car) or hide a bad battery condition (they're bright the the car won't start). However when it goes, you're running on the battery only, a lot, and it doesn't handle stress nearly as well.Īnd headlights are not a reliable indicator of battery condition.
A battery can go bad or die, but unless it develops a major internal short, the alternator usually moves on. Though that can happen, usually it's the other way 'round, in my experience. The battery starts to go, stresses the aging Alternator, and that follows it into the grave. Some places, like Auto Zone or PEP Boys will test your battery and alternator for free, even if you're not buying (though I wouldn't mention that upfront). Battery replacement places will test your alternator too.
