  • Weird Battery Problem

    Okay, my car died like a month ago, so I replaced the battery [img]graemlins/bs.gif[/img] . Worked fine. Then it died again, so I charged the battery and replaced the alternator. Worked fine, 'till today. I'm sittin' at a stoplight, and I look down at my battery gauge, and it's readin' like 10-11 amps. WTF? No rough idle, nothin'. . .I get to the restaurant and shut it off and try to fire it off again, and it turns over just fine. I did this about 3-4 times, 'cuz I know that starting a car takes a lot of amps, but no change. I even let it sit there while I ate, and was still able to start it and drive it 8 blocks. ANY thoughts as to what's goin' on?

    Check the wire that goes from the Alt to the battery, it may be corroded.

    Also check the wire that goes from the neg of the battery to make sure its not corroded either.
