What Causes a Car Battery to Lose Power?
1 Answers
Reasons for a car battery losing power: 1. If the vehicle is parked for an extended period, the battery's charge will continuously deplete, leading to a discharged state and inability to start the car. 2. When the car battery reaches the end of its lifespan, it may lose power. The condition of the battery can be determined by observing the color inside: green indicates normal, black signifies low voltage, and white means the battery has reached the end of its life and needs replacement. 3. If the car engine's belt becomes loose or breaks, it cannot drive the generator, causing an open circuit. Additionally, broken generator wires or loose connections can result in the battery discharging without charging.
