DsH 2 Posted July 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 i have man im no lemon well we had slight progress, you shoulda seen the state of the bonnet release latch thing, well all the interior lightsw came on but when we opened the they all went out and now nothing, its getting late but we left it on for another 10 minutes and nothing, should i just charge the battery over night, a friend can lend me his charger tomorrow, just it says 12v battery for upto 1800cc engine, but it shouldnt make a difference if the battery isnt in the car right?

VDub_Steve 1 Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 You could try another battery just to see if your battery is a dud Link to post Share on other sites

VDub_Steve 1 Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 Well if you try a battery from a different car and it works then battery is fooked if its in warranty period you should be able to get it replaced Link to post Share on other sites
DsH 2 Posted July 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 the battery was bought 6 months ago, but i cant find the reciept, the only thing that happens when i try and jump it is the milage comes up on the dash but thats literally it :\ Link to post Share on other sites
VDub_Steve 1 Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 It may be that drained that it can't get any charge I would try charging it outside the car and if that doesn't work I'd buy a new one. I would try another battery just so u know it is the battery at fault Link to post Share on other sites

Gazbarber1982 3 Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Have they not scribed the sale date into the battery with a dremel or similar? A few places do it because people do lose receipts and it covers them too. Link to post Share on other sites
