Greetings all Got a nightmare here, so bambi decided to land on my windshield a few months ago and I finally decided to replace it. Well no shop is willing to work on it because the snorkel bracket is overlapping and on the way. Even with 2 people doing it they can't guranteed a proper water...

Welp that just happened. For the first time! What makes a battery go bad? After working properly for 3 years

No winch. 3 led light bars connected to 3 rocker panel switches. I have a multimeter coming in tomorrow from amazon. The battery is 3/4 years, working with no issues so I can't picture to start failing now. This all started this year. Left my car parked in July for 2 weeks and battery died. Then...

This is killing me!! Day 2 of my X just dead. parked at 10pm and attenpted to start her at 1pm, sigh. Battery is at only 11% charge and I had charged it to yesterday. That has to be be a huge draw!! And the only thing I know is on, are the rocker panel switches(3) cause the neon glow stay on.
