What Causes a Vehicle to Have No Power Even When the Battery Has Charge?
1 Answers
When a vehicle has no power despite the battery having charge, the reasons may include: loose battery group connectors, broken internal battery connection wires, short circuits in the wiring, blown fuses, or the vehicle's power-off switch not being turned on. Below are more relevant details: 1. Battery: The red terminal is the positive pole, and the black terminal is the negative pole. Generally, the left side is positive and the right side is negative. Be cautious to avoid short circuits when connecting the battery. Short-term exposure to water will not affect the battery's performance, as water is a weak electrolyte with poor conductivity. However, it is essential to dry it immediately to prevent oxidation of the terminals, which could lead to terminal detachment and battery damage. 2. Battery Has Charge but Vehicle Won't Start: This symptom is often caused by a blown fuse responsible for the starter motor. It's important to note that if the vehicle fails to start, avoid repeatedly attempting to start it, as this can drain the battery completely, leaving it powerless. 3. Replacing a Fuse: If a car fuse is blown, it must be replaced. You can visit a repair shop to have it replaced. 4. Fuse Location: The location of the fuse varies depending on the vehicle model. Generally, the fuse box is near the battery. The fuse box is usually secured with clips, and some high-end models may have bolts. Carefully remove the box to access the fuses.
