Hi,
Been having battery problems for the last few months which has meant ive had to recharge the battery. Got that fed up I went and bought a new battery about 4 weeks ago instead of taking it to a garage! Anyway same problem happend, battery completely flat! So I decided to take it in at last!
Just had the garage on the phone and they seem to think its because my sub & amp are draining it. I cant remember having the problems when the system was first fit and its nothing special just ur typical sub and amp. But the garage arnt sure what it is other then that - I personally think they've just got something against "These boom box things!" (His exact words!) and they dont know wot the prob is.
But are they right is it my system causing the prob?
He reckoned that having my lights on, heater & sound at once is too much for the alternator is he right? Ive also got a alarm fitted too, which he mentioned uses the battery even when the car is parked!
He said if he fits a alternator he cant gurantee it with the "Boom Box thing"!
Really dont know what I should do, should I get him to fit an alternator and see how that goes or not? Help! Any1 know what the prob could be or what I should do?
Thanks, Jo.
