Have charging system checked Posted by Bill Homer [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: battery dead today - 4 out of 6 cells totally dry, aaron, Sat, 5 Jan 2008 14:28:22 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
This is the typical result of overcharging the battery, probably due to a defective voltage regulator allowing the charging voltage to go too high. Do your headlights get very bright on occasion for unknown reasons? Have you been burning out several of the small light bulbs lately? This is why.
I had this happen on my old C900, the boiled-over acid burned a hole in the sheetmetal in the right front lower corner of the car, directly below the battery. Check yours for collateral damage; in any case, treat the area below the battery with a baking soda and water bath.
