  • something wrong

    I just changed my battery last month..along with a rebuilt alterator. my car has not been driven since thursday... but when i went to start it up yesterday..it would not turn over. when i jumped the car it came on quickly.. could there be bad wiring somewhere?

    I also noticed the bat. gauge dipping real low at idle but then it picks up when accelerated. It would almost stall out when i have my blinker on and im stopped at a light. :mad:

    the battery gauge is also effected when i put on my rear defroster...it reads in the yellow...and also when my engine fan kicks on????

    i think there could be a bad wire somewhere but im not sure..maybe the alternator just sux my A$$!!

    what do you guys think is wrong here??
    any info will be great!

      That's something that you just have to have tested. no one can tell you whats wrong. Go into a shop and have them test your alternator and battery. If they are working good then it's probably wiring.

        Exactly right,and at most Auto stores the testing is free!
