hi guys, just new on here so would like to say hi there, and look forward to bring part of you community, I gave a problem that I thought someone could help me with. In December this year I had a new battery fitted, a new final stage resistor, dye obd tarting, or failing battery problems. Everything has been spot on since, but this last week problems have arisen. My battery went flat do I charged it up, etc. Then after a few days it went flat again, so I've checked a few things and this is where I'm at. If the car battery up charged all night, with a quality charger, once disconnected the battery is flat. If I connect my new starter pack up it, the car starts no problem. I then drive yo my local shop, get whist I want and ome out, the car won't start, it's flat battery again. But connect the starter pack and away it goes. I've glad people telling me all sorts, but it Would cost a fortune to follow everyone's ideas.
I'm now retired due to disabilities, so my working ability is greatly reduced, so I'm finding it hard to sort it out, to my, and I'm a simple guy, if the car won't start under the battery power, but it does start with the starter pack, surely the starters ok? If the battery won't take a charge up over night, can it be a faulty new battery?
The alternator shows around 14.8 when car running, so it's putting something in the battery, but nothing is being stored in the battery. Can anyone help or advise, as, local garages are making fortunes out of me, I'm an easy catch being disabled and not able to do anything myself, so I'm looking for some advice so I can go in with some information to hand, rather than being dazzled with the engineers waffle ....thanks guys please help I rely so much on the car as high me and my wife are wheel chair users and the car is our life line!
