1991 Mercury Capri Repair Question
Mileage: 174,109 miles.
Why wont my battery keep a charge?
Answer
Have the alternator load tested-any auto parts store could do it-
But even when the car jumps off and just sits there it still will die.
what the car does is it starts wen the battery has a charge. the battery light stays on even wen the car is being jumped off and the meter reads full bettery but wen i take the jumper cables off it just starts dying.
Get the alternator load tested and comeback with the testing results
theres also a fuse that could be blown whitch is the engine charge fuse, i think thats what it is. where would that be located. I also just put in new spark plugs in it and its still not staying running. what else could it be other than the alternator?
theres also a fuse that could be blown which is the engine charge fuse,is it blown if so the alternator will not recondition the battery
where would it be located on a 91 turbo capri xr2?
You don't have a engine charge fuse-check the engine fuse instead in the interior fuse panel
I did and i think the fuse im talking about is called the system charge fuse and its the fuse that runs the energy from the alternator to the battery.
