Can a car run after removing the battery when it is started?
1 Answers
After starting the car, removing the battery will prevent it from running. Reasons why removing the battery prevents the car from running: The car battery is not only responsible for starting the engine but also provides power to other electrical devices in the car. Once removed, many electrical components such as the dashboard, headlights, and horn will stop functioning, and the car will not be able to move. Principle of the car battery: It has a certain self-discharge rate, meaning it naturally loses some charge even when no electrical components are connected. During long-term parking, if the car has power-consuming devices like anti-theft alarms or dashcams, the battery consumption will be even greater, potentially leading to a dead battery. Therefore, it is recommended to disconnect the negative terminal of the battery to avoid severe battery drain. However, removing the negative terminal can also have certain consequences.
