I Have A New Battery

232stang · November 7th, 2006, 12:49 AM

but when im accelerating extremely fast or redline mainly in 4th gear my radio will turn off. is it because my battery is being drained or is my car just a POS? also sometimes my windshield wipers like to go by themselves.

with those problems id say of the bat it's a junction block problem. again with electrical problems you really need to spend the time diagnosing it. id suggest
a test lite and a fluke meter

yeah thats definatelly something electrical. maybe in high rpms it rattles something loose. like i know with my exhuast around 2k rpm stuff rattles in my car now lol cause of the tone frequency of my exhuast.

check the charge on your alternator to start off with

scubasteve041186 · November 7th, 2006, 03:13 PM

to do that just start the car and dicconect the battery and if the car dies your alternator is shot. otherwise the alternator should keep the car running

im assuming i disconnect the negative only?
also when i had my muffler off it made my car rattle which made my spastic left blinker start to blink normal. now my right blink is spastic and left is fine. i checked the lights and they work fine the one in the front is kind of dim. will that make it blink fast?

nope the positive terminal. or both. no.. that would be something in the wiring connections.. you still got any warrenty on that? lol

i bought the car used without any warranty info but the past two days i the windshield wiper hasnt been going by itself but the light is still fast. i think ill worry about other stuff first then this.

i know that in my camry, when the blinkers were going fast, either the front or rear turn light was out.
