Voltage Regulator Stuck?
First off, the stats. 1995 Taurus with 115,000 miles. Everything stock. Now the problem. I come home for work, turn my car off and run in the house. I run in the house for 30 seconds to get something, come back and try to start my car and nothing. I dont think it even clicked. But then again maybe it did but it definately did not turn. I wake up and try again in the morning and nothing. I get a jumpstart and it cranks. I take it to a shop and from then on, it cranks EVERY TIME!!! They could find no problems. Everything tested just fine. I'm thinking to my self WTF? It has to be something wrong!! This one guy told me something about my voltage regulator sticking. Anyone ever heard of this? Does this sound like altenator or starter problems? Keep in mind that when it was not turning, the radio played fine and the interior lights were fine, however the headlights would not come on. This is a toughie I'm sure. Callin all Automotive Guru's!!!!
