Subject: Re: Battery life question


The low value you see after you start is the lowest value of the voltage measured when you start.That lingers in the display a while too make it possible for you too see it. After that it shows "real time" voltage. A reding of 9,5 indicates a really bad batery if the temperature is above 50 F or 10 deg C. A new battery would show about 11.0 V. I buy cheap ones and they last about 5 years. Mike Bush wrote: > > I have a 94 9000 cse with about 50K miles on it. When I start the car it > doesn't just fire right up.
