Re: 2007 Precedent issue HELP!!!

Re: 2007 Precedent issue HELP!!!
The batteries are 3 years old, voltage at rest is
bat a 13.2 bat b 12.9 bat c 13.1 bat d 13.0 I haven't done a voltage under load. After reading the mentioned thread mine does what his was doing, up in the air its fine but on the ground it slips or shutters.......I'll attempt to get a voltage reading while driving and post results. Thanks for the quick replies. |

Re: 2007 Precedent issue HELP!!!
50.1 volts before driving, at full speed 45.9 volts. returned to garage after about a mile trip and resting is 49.9 volts. I will note that while speeding up my volt meter was going crazy with readings anywhere from 40 volts to 130 volts....weird.

Re: 2007 Precedent issue HELP!!!
Put fresh batteries in your meter and try again. My meter had older batteris and it caused it to read higher then normal. When doing a load test you will need to test each battery under load and see if one or more are the culprit. You defiantly have a battery issue.

Re: 2007 Precedent issue HELP!!!
Tom, I think his meter is giving him wrong readings and his batteries are worse then posted. He is currently only showing a 4.2v drop which Scotty says a voltage drop of 4-5v or less is acceptable under hard acceleration or an up hill run as long as the voltage rises when the load is removed.
