What is the voltage of the battery in the Bora?
1 Answers
Volkswagen Bora series batteries are 12V, while buses and trucks use 24V batteries. The car battery should avoid being parked in an open parking lot for a long time. If parking for an extended period, remove the battery and take it with you to prevent freezing and damage. In winter, the engine is harder to start. Each engine start attempt should not exceed 5 seconds, and the interval between restarts should be no less than 15 seconds. If the engine fails to start after multiple ignition attempts, check for specific reasons in other areas such as the circuit, ignition coil, or fuel system. Avoid repeatedly starting the engine without interruption, as this can cause the battery to burn out due to excessive discharge. Car batteries should be charged frequently. If left unused for a long time, the battery will gradually self-discharge until it becomes unusable. Therefore, start the car periodically to charge the battery. However, the car battery is connected to the alternator in the entire circuit. As soon as the car starts, the alternator can charge the battery. Therefore, in most cases, the battery operates in a fully charged state. This operating state is called float charging, where the power source and battery are connected in parallel in the circuit, with the power source providing a small current to compensate for the battery's loss, keeping it in a fully charged state.
