Somebody left his bloody lights on.
Borrowed a battery pack but it will not start. Doesn’t get close to turning over.
Tried all the usual tricks changed earthing points and sanded a good shiny spot for both cables.
Battery reads 11.96v and increased to 12.12v with the pack attached.
The pack was definitely charged I checked multiple times.
So… stuck without car, worse things can happen but what do I do next?
The battery is old the car is older seeing as I know the battery was flatted by lights left on…
Will a new battery almost definitely fix it? I’m pretty reluctant to carry one on the bloody bus unless its an almost sure thing!
Answers on a postcard please
Cheers
