well I decided to load test all 3 vehicle. the dodge failed. but the other two did alright I suppose.
the Saturn read 10.0v and 400cca
the Honda read 10.2 410cca
the Saturns battery is rated at 625cca so that's kind of low. the Hondas is rated at 450 so its ok. the temperature was 40 degrees when I tested them. any idea why the cca is what it is?
the dodge has 11.8v so I charged it. and after charging it, and it load tested weak but not
bad and then I thought well Ill se how the charging system is and went to start it and nothing happened. so then I hooked the tester to it and it went from 12.5 to zero when loaded. I guess the load test killed it. it was on its way out though.
