Hmmmm...seems the battery has gone dead again....

auto electrician coming to check it out soon...hopefully he can find the problem...cause this is really pissing me off now!

I was driving the car tuesday arvo..so its only been less than 3 days!!!

and to add to that...almost ripped off my 4th finger...when my ring got caught on the door handle as I was closing it whilst going inside....ouch!

and to top it, scraped a bit of skin off my right hand, as fixing up the tubing to coolant reservoir...

give me a break! arghhhh

Is it a new battery?
Or is it a known problem with your car and other batteries that it has had?

A friend of mine had his new battery go flat, just as by sitting there for a few days, apparently there was a short inside the battery and it was flattening itself.


Otherwise..
have you got a Multimeter?

Check the current that is being drawn with the ignition key off, maybe something is really hogging power when you park it up..

Ouch Quyen - not having much luck at all are you? Hope it all works out for you

yeah....its a pretty new battery...

but has been ongoing problem...but thought the problem was fixed...cause the main reason before was wire from fuse box to battery fell out....

auto electrician came and had a look... he couldn't understand it, as it was ok once jump started...he thinks perhaps the battery is a dud and recommended to get a slightly bigger one with more amp.

probably stop by MLC tomorrow, and just ask if the stereo wiring could possibly be the culprit...otherwise will exchange batteries.

nice bit of honda reliability.

sounds so familiar.



talking about injuring yourself.... i remember when the window winders used to get stiff in winter in my old corolla twin cam.

i'd just had a disagreement with my girlfriend at the time, when i went to wind up the window i had to put alot of force in (really cold that day). my hand slipped of the handle and went into the key removing some skin from my knuckle. that got me right to my boiling temp... i was quite irate. but wait, there's still more!! i was still holding my temper at this point. i opened the door and went to get out of the car, somehow the a pillar dared to contact me on the head *very* firmly. hoooooo boy. not happy jan. i went burko, started slamming the door so hard that it bounced out... then ran around to the back of the car and started kicking the bumper bar. i was so angry... i just can't describe the feeling. have u seen the episode of fawlty towers where basil gets cranky at his little mini for refusing to start? thats how i was.
it's like... unnadulterated fury. i had this murderous urge (towards the car).

kind of like the time i had a bolt that i couldn't get loose so i had to chisel it to turn it around, and i slipped and hit my finger with the hammer. that didn't make me feel very happy either.


yes... i love cars.

Pfft - amatuers. Unless you've squashed a finger between the firewall and a Suzuki swift engine when installing the motor into your mother's car, a few cuts here and there are insignificant.

I was squashing my fingers last week trying to put that stupid last screw into the side of the front bar

and I've got like a 5 cm scar on my left arm from a bad scrape I got when I was changing sparks in my old civic, and the last spark plug was stuck.... finally got it undone, but had so much force on the spanner....slipped and yeah.....major ouch.

LOL @ the pillar comment...

ummmm....still doesn't beat the time when I was like 14 and playing with my little sister in the backyard, she was like only 2 or 3 at the time....

and her ball went under our 6 metre fibreglass boat, and when I was getting it for her...I hit my forehead on the propellar...

not funny! even though Lang was laughing her head off......until I blacked out pretty soon after that, and had to go get stitches.
