Re: [T3] Acting Like A Dead Battery


The starter sucks back allot of current as opposed to the lights of a
car....so the lights can appear to be on and normal (may be a bit dim) but
there will not be enough juice to crank the starter.   Check all connected
wires to the starter and make sure the ground cables are clean with a good
metal on metal ground.   Also make sure the alternator is charging (the car
should remain running when the battery is disconnected).   If your charging
system is OK  get the starter checked at a local electrical shop most places
will do it for free or a couple of dollars.

Hope this helps
