What is the battery model for the 2013 Mondeo?
1 Answers
The original battery for the Mondeo is VARTA, with the model specification T6 12V/60AH 105RC 590CCA. The battery dimensions are 27.6 cm in length, 17.5 cm in width, and 17.5 cm in height. The designed lifespan of the battery is 27 months. Generally, family vehicles are more economical, and new car batteries often last 3-4 years. However, after the first replacement, it is usually necessary to replace the battery every 2 years or so. The steps to test the condition of the battery are as follows: 1. Inspect the battery's exterior: Check if the battery casing is bulging, leaking, cracked, or if the terminals are corroded. If any of these signs are present, it indicates that the battery is dead and needs replacement. 2. Measure the battery voltage: After charging for two hours, check the voltage of each cell every 20 minutes. If it is below 13V, the battery has issues. During discharge, perform three checks every 10 minutes. If the discharge time is faster than other batteries and the voltage drops below 10V, the battery is faulty. 3. Check for "dehydration" and blackening: After charging the battery for 3-6 hours, if the charger's red light remains on, it indicates severe "dehydration." Open the battery's top cover to reveal six round holes. If the electrolyte inside appears black, it means the lead powder from the plates has fallen off, indicating a dead cell.
