Hi familyman7,

What is the charging rate when engine is running? Test the charging rate both between the
battery terminals and between alternator main post and ground.
When engine is turned off after running, are you able to restart?
Was any parasitic drain test carried out?
Is the battery completely drained or only weak when restarting in the morming?
