Battery Problems...Sigh.

So, the MJ wouldn't start this morning, so I had to steal, er, borrow my wife's JK.

 

I started working on it when I got home tonight.

 

Tested the battery...dead.

 

Jump started the MJ using the JK. Tested the alternator. No problems with it.

 

Tried to charge the battery...charger indicated it wasn't charging.

 

The battery is still under warranty, so I figured I'd take it to NAPA down the road and have them try to charge it.

 

Loosened the positive terminal, broke it loose, and lifted it up. The post came up with it...

 

 

:doh:

 

So, my wife is going to take me to work tomorrow, then take the battery to NAPA for a replacement.

 

So, I guess I'll work on my alarm DIY tomorrow!

I'm just glad it was the battery and not the alternator. :cheers:

Hmm... New XJ has a Napa battery, and so far, I've hated it.

 

Do yourself a favor and get yourself a real battery.(Interstate)
