Hello all,
Thanks to ALL of you who sent helpful advice about my Verde w/the zapped
battery. From talking to 1 or 2 of you, I think we determined that the
problem stemmed from the way I was letting the car warm up. Since it's
been cold, I usually let the car sit for 10-15 minutes to warm up fully.
I have noticed that when I crank the car, usually the battery warning
light will come on and stay on until the RPMs reach a certain level.
Looking back, I would say that probably every time I got in the car
after the warm up period, the battery light was still on until I drove
away. I believe that this process slowly drained it. I got a jump
last nite and drove around to do several errands and everytime it
re-started just fine. Cross your fingers for me...
