Leaving Skid Marks
Hi guys. i try to think this one out but i can not figure it out. Need help please
Well, let me explain in point forms
1. car starts ok and all.
2. it seems that battery is not HOLDING it's charge
3. When on idle for a long time, like stationary or on heavy traffic, my battery dies out. I have to reve it up on N to charge it up
4. while i am driving, it is fine
5. replaced battery about 4 months ago with "solice"? battery
6. If i drive it for a long time, it charges up a bit then on idle, it dies in about three min
7. typical sigh is that the idle becomes rough as if one of the spark plug is gone, then stereo dies and all the warning light comes on.. then it dies...
8 i have 2 amps running. but regardless it is on high volume or low
suspecting faults
1. Alternator not strong enough? Not sure because it charges well when the car in reving high
2. Dural stage boost controller switch earthing? Thas one of the thing i installed my self long time ago (in the rainy night at 1 am) and when i turn it off, the dash light dims for about 2 milli seconds
3. Bad battery cell? It sort of happened after replacing the battery. But not as oftern
today was pretty bad, Went to National Park for a drive with mates and when it was stationary, it sort of died.
any ideas?
