ebpda9 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 This is the third time this has happened in the past month. I park the car, it's tunning just fine, then when i go to start it it won't. After 3 times cranking it it finally starts running like crap, no CEL's, no blinking cruise lights, and best of all the seatbelt chime is back on. I looked at the battery terminals and they are snug and clean. Battery voltage drops to 11.2V all the time when the engine is not running, but it will go up to 13.2V when running. Also I noticed the whole reset thing happens when either the temps change a lot in a very short period of time, or i park the car in the snow. It's getting to be annoying now.

NSFW Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 The low voltages suggest that your battery is toast. And/or the alternator. You'd best get that checked out while the car still starts at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John M Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Let me guess - stock battery? The 05s were built a long time ago! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
