You need to charge and test the battery and then test the charging system. it sounds like you have a bad alternator or other issue with the charging system. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. billyc66 New User Nov 28, 2012, 8:31 PM Post #3 of 4 (1308 views) Re: bat/alt issues Sign In the battery is less than four years old. alternatr not sure. dam ni just replaced the surp belt to, would of been easy to fix it than and who was the person who thought removing the motor mount was an okay step in replacing a belt id like to know Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Nov 29, 2012, 12:42 AM Post #4 of 4 (1271 views) Re: bat/alt issues Sign In Why don't you do as HT suggested and charge the damn battery and then test the charging system. 4 years on a cheap battery is plenty and with recent serp belt that could be wrong. Age of alternator doesn't mean much so find the problem!
