Hi there,
Last night I had a few problems, first of all when I started the car the power steering would be really heavy, then after turning off and on would sort the problem, then after a few miles after turning the car on and off when driving I had a battery light on. Then after travelling home with the battery light still on the esp,abs airbags started beeping at me saying they had all failed.
This morning I tried jumpstarting the car with booster cables and the battery is so dead that I cannot even start it at all, all it does it clicks. I have a gunson machine which tests the power of the battery etc, as I wanted the car to start to see if the alternator is working correctly. Does anyone have any ideas? Like leaving the jump leads on for say 10mins? As my machine when connected says my battery had 0-25% charge when the jump leads are connected but as soon as I try and start it the battery goes completely flat?
Many Thanks
