Supra ST Myster Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 my sister has a peoguet 307 and yesterday she said she stalled it and when she tried to start it again (on her drive) nothing happend, started making a clicking sound, so been around and the battery is 12V when disconnected but around 4V when it is connected, so tried jump starting it from my van, power came on to the car, central locking works, but when trying to start the car is tries to turn over once but its still flat, so switched the lights on which worked and then turned over and they went very dim so it is draining but why would it be like that if my van is running and connected to her battery? Have taken the battery out now and trying to charge it and see what happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiceRocket Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Well it's a French motor so lets see...... Has it done a lot of mileage? Sounds to me like a solenoid/starter motor area problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorin Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Bad earth somewhere? French cars and dodgy electrics go hand in hand in my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
