slickgolf Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Hi My car battery had gone flat , a 24 hour charge with an optimate shows the battery is now full. NOTHING.....absolutely no life anywhere. Do I have to reset anything ? Any help appreciated Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanski Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Is the battery still dead after charging or just no life at the ignition end? I suggest you remove battery from car - charge again but dont put back on car - leave outside for about 30 mins or so and put on charge again - see if its lost any charge - if yes - battery has a short somewhere or electolite depleted somehow - bin it get a new one If battery still has full charge but nothing at the car end - then check fuses are all ok - look in manual for them? Take it from there - but more info really required to help diagnose issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dblock Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 do the hazard or brake lights work but nothing else? This happened to my car it was a fuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stanski Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Nice one well done just keep an eye on the battery next few weeks and check it's not dropping charge again just to be safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
