What exactly is wrong.....???

[Terenc3]

Its my forth time having to jump start my car..

 

First: Cant start after 1.5days of not driving. Went to TCM to get a replacement battery while they chck my current one..

 

Second: Now with VoltMeter, after 2 days cant start.. I checked my voltage, it reads less than 11.6V. In a rush, jump start and continue with life..

 

TCM asked me back to install my battery, saying nothing is wrong, checked my vehicle and say nothing is wrong. Argued about Alternator or Starter Motor, they say nothing wrong.. So, life goes on..

 

Third: Similarly, 2 days never start car, dead again.. Voltage less than 11.6V again again.. Dulan liao, go change battery to Amaron MF Battery..

 

Forth: Today. First dead start with new battery.. What exactly is wrong? Again another 11.6V and below.. Called up TCM and going down later.. What to say huh? Zzzz..

 

P.S: If I drive my car daily, no prob leh.. As long as 1.5days never start due to MC or I rest huh, wan go out do some errands cant start liao.. When I change my Battery, mechinic says battery cant start so I changed lor.. Then now problem persist.. Sibei dulan.. Zzzzz.....

 

Is it started motor or alternator?

encounter this problem with my old old 120Y.

get them to check

 

1) ur alternator.

2) any other component behaving abnormally tats is constantly utilisiing ur batt?

[Terenc3]

Other than my alarm, I dun tink I have other stuff constantly at my battery already ba? I even took out my alarm scanner...

[Verve]

could it be the ignition system , if your car under warranty time to bang table liao

[Terenc3]

I'm going down to band table later.. 19th August my car reaches 3yrs of age.. Lolz..

Hi bro,

 

Most probably is the alternator kupu liao.

[Ymbek]

Bro did you install any Amp?? Think your car got electrical leakage.

if not won't happen this way

[Aucsl]

My wild guess.. some of the electric components drain the battery. You might want to check all the light bulb.. etc

[Ymbek]

How about the car interior light,did you check got off ?

[Terenc3]

Stock ICE leh.. Never play with ICE.. I only fix up some room LED lamps and boot lamps but they all are off-ed when cars is 'off-ed'.. Zzzz...

[Terenc3]

Also off... Check tonnes and tonnes of times le.. Hahaha..

[Ymbek]

Like that jialet leh......

Due to these few days raining my reverse sensor also got problem so your maybe alarm got leakage???? i guess only coz that the only electric consume

[Hosm]

Since you have a voltmeter.

check the voltage

1) ignition on but without cranking the engine.

this should read 12V plus for a healthy battery.

 

2) crank up the engine and check the voltage when stablised

this should read 13V plus for a healthy alternator.

 

Of course like the other mentioned it could be somthing draining the battery.

 

Good luck

[Elfenstar]

go bang table quick! its either the alternator or something is draining the power when the engine is off. Check anything that takes power directly from the main but its on/off is controlled by a relay/circuit.

[Terenc3]

My battery was fully charged.. I changed it nearly 2 mths ago.. =)

[Terenc3]

I did as what you stated and everything is in healthy status.. My car is now in TC.. Thursday then collect, asked them to check the electrical system thoroughly.. They loaned me a B15 Sunny.. Hahaha..

[Terenc3]

Hmm.. I suggested to the Service Advisor to check my car thoroughly already.. Well, whatever its faulty they will change it.. Best of all, They loaned me a B15 Sunny.. So.. No need bang table YET.. Hahaha.
