1996 Dodge Intrepid Repair Question
Mileage: 197 miles.
1996 Intrepid won't turn over fast enough to start after gets warm, if I let is sit for 2 hours it starts fine.
Answer
did you check the alternator and starter??
Roy
so your thoughts are that the starter is getting hot with the motor and causing it not to turn at a high rate? I am thinking the alternator is fine beacuse it does charge back up
i believe it checking basics to start. what is the voltage at the battery running??
Roy
Roy, thanks for the response, I did check voltages and we are at 12.4 not running and 14.4 running
good. next i would look at all the connections at the battery. positive and negative to be sure there is no voltage drops and good tight connections.
Roy
Connections are good and tight, neg just cleaned when new battery was installed a month ago positive has brand new cable clamp
did you do voltage drop tests??
Roy
No I didn't
If that was the case why it turn over easier when it is at room temp?
heat effects electric as in grounds and powers.
Roy
How do I go about doing a voltage drop test!
