Gordon F Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 Take it down to your local battery place and get them to do a discharge test on it. This effectively puts a short straight across the battery and will test the actual power of the battery (as opposed to just the voltage), and will also show up any duff cells.

All cars have their lights dim when idling, that's not a concern. 3 years is a good life for a battery but it could last another 3, or it might die tomorrow. Window - about 4-5 seconds from memory. -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt C Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 Hally Fords do a free battery test mate. Pop in next time your passing and jobs a good un. If you don't wanna pay there price then just say the old "I don't have the cash on me now" line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt C Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 A personal favourite of my own. They don't like it very much though when you use it and they've just finished fitting a battery. Dunno why! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
