Yesterday, my FIAT wouldn't start. No click, no lights, no nothing. Exactly like a flat battery. I pull out the voltmeter, and it reads 12.5v across the terminals. Hm. Can't find any obviously loose wires. Out of time, head off to work in the VW.
This morning, I look at it again. Still 12.5v at the battery. I throw a charger on it, anway. 2 minutes later, the car fires right up. Very puzzling. I'd not expect a battery so dead it couldn't even light up the e-brake warning light to show 12.5v. Comments? |
