CardiffSupra Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Went to start the car 7 o clock this morrning and it would'nt start, It was just dead, the lights went off ever time i tryed to start it. there was about 1" of ice on the car, it was cold to say the least. I then took the key out waited 10secs and tryed again and it started easy, no problems at all. So why didnt it start the 1st time around? It was as if the battry was flat. Thanks.

Ian R Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 But why does it only do it when its freezing? Battery terminals are metal what happens to it when it get warmer it expands so when it cool it ......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest B4ATY Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Hi Mine started doing exactly the same, - turned out eventually to be the first signs of the battery giving up. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
