What’s up guys. I’m stumped need some advise.
My battery keeps going dead! My car is a one owner that had have been garage kept for too long so when I got it every single thing on the car had to be changed. From the fuel pump to the OPTi spark I mean I changed everything!
I put a new battery and alternator in the car because when I got it the battery was always going dead. After I put in the new battery and alternator on the car after a little time it started going dead again
. I had the battery and alternator tested and they come back to tell me that they thought the alternator was bad and being under warranty I changed it.
It started going dead again and the new battery tested bad under warranty so I changed it.
Not long after it started the same thing again.
At this point if I remember correctly I have changed the alternator twice and the battery twice within a matter of months. It just randomly goes dead to you can never predict it.
Each time the ignition and lights was off. For a while I thought there was a pattern of it doing it with the ignition off but the keys sticking in it but it did it this morning with the keys out.
Each time it does this it’s very easy to jump!
i mean I don’t even have to start the other vehicle all I have to do is connect jumper cables to another battery in it fires right up. The door chimes come on, the dash lights up, The radio comes on everything seems normal like you have a charged battery until you hit the key and nothing happens!
There has been times where the car was completely dead but for the majority of the time it’s just like I describe it.
I used an ohmmeter to check the resistor in the keys and they are good and if there not I’m getting the exact same resistance reading from both keys.
I bought an ignition starter switch because the guy at the auto parts store thinks that’s what’s draining my battery but I’ve never installed one so I haven’t done it yet. do you guys have any suggestions
