How long does it take a Honda Accord battery to fully charge?
My car battery died today. This is the second time this has happened within 3 months (Honda said the first time that the battery tested good).
I don't use the car often and live about 10 minutes from work. I feel like the cold affected it this time? Or could it be a combination of that and the fact i'm not using the car besides to go to work really…
This is a certified pre owned vehicle i've own for less than 1 year
Short trips and the cold kills batteries. Buy a trickle charger and connect it to your car when it is in the garage. Take the car on the freeway for an hour once in a while.
That would depend on the type of charger you are using.
If you don't use the vehicle that often, and drive it less than 10 miles from work, you're just not using the car enough to keep the battery charged. You NEED to get the car out and drive it at highway speeds for AT LEAST 30-45 minutes every week or so just to keep the battery up to a full charge. If you can't do that, then you need to plug in to a battery maintainer or "trickle charger" that will keep your battery up.
Shop on Ebay or Amazon.com to find a trickle charger for your car.
How old is the battery?
Go to an auto parts store. They test batteries and charging systems for free.
Idling the motor won't charge a battery.
You need to use a portable battery charger set to 12 volts, 10 amps, for 6 hours to charge a car battery.
- On my 2001 Honda 300ex, I'm replacing the lower steering bearing. How far in does it go until fully seated? I can't seem to get it any farther than flush with the top of the seat. I've tapped it in with a same size socket and it won't go any farther, but it seems like there's still room… How far in does it go?
- How long does it take for a mechanic to finish my dirtbike? About 3 weeks ago I brought my dirtbike to a Honda shop to get repaired. I payed 900 to get the clutche adjusted, valve replaced, oil change, breaks change, a full time up, and pretty much everything to make the dirtbike pretty much "brand new". It's been 3 weeks since it's been in the shop going on 4, and I'm starting to get VERY impatient. I'm just wondering how long it takes to do all of this?
- How long does it take for loan max to repossess your car after your loan due date in Ohio? I took out an $800 title loan on my 2000 Honda Oddyssey (188,000 miles) and I can't make the initial repayment amount of $288 on time. How long will it be before they send someone out to repossess my car? I live in Ohio and I'm really afraid they will repossess it before I can come up with the cash.
