Re: Weird experience~

Have you been listening to music or AV on in ACC mode without engine running for awhile? I still prefer load test, because it will discover buckled/compromised cells. If this is the case and still under warranty, you get a new battery. If while driving and V on the battery is +14V then the alternator is good. Use to be I'd see more dead alternators than batteries, now it's the other way around. Last three electrical issues where 1 dead alternator 2 buckled batteries. Loa test is easy and fast, just go to a place that sells batteries and ask for it, it only takes a few minutes.
