DB A battery that goes flat once may simply have been discharged. A battery that keeps going flat deserves investigation.
Possible causes
- Ageing battery
- Alternator problem
- Charging-system fault
- Lights being left on
- Electrical equipment drawing power
- Corroded battery terminals
- Loose connections
- Faulty wiring
- Vehicle being left unused
- Repeated short journeys
- Parasitic electrical drain
Why replacing the battery isn't always the fix
Replacing a perfectly good battery won't fix a fault elsewhere in the vehicle. If the underlying cause isn't addressed, the same problem is likely to happen again.
Getting it diagnosed
DB Autos can investigate why your battery keeps going flat and advise on the actual cause, rather than automatically fitting a replacement.
