Good morning, tib, dale, Atty and mm I didn’t think I’d ever get back to sleep but I finally did.

Glad you got a decent nights sleep, tib

 

[mightymen]

Don't know when I crawled in bed but I just got back up a few minutes ago.

 

[mightymen]

Hi Atty ready for another fun day on the outside.

 

[mightymen]

Last few days doing a bible study on the SOUL (kept me away from the outside) anyone want to know what I learned on the SOUL? It's actual very simple AND everyone else has it wrong - scripture wise that is.

Getting bloodwork done tomorrow, should
have results on Wednesday.

HA!
HA!!

Go out to the car to head over for bloodwork and the car is dead. I mean dead dead dead.
Would not even unlock. Both fobs. Had to use a physical key to get in. Nothing.

Waited on AAA for a bit. They sent a truck to "NORTH" (My Road Name). THEN to "SOUTH"
(My Road Name). Ummmm... no... I am on plain old (My Road Name) about 7 miles away.

Luckily, it started with a jump. But, the battery is 8 years old, so it was suggested to replace
it. I asked, "So if the battery goes, there is no pre-warning like difficult starts or some kind of
hint?" Nope... it simply dies on the spot. Hmmmm... sounds strange to me, but OK. Not
even UNLOCK the doors??? Or trunk??? Pretty drastic.

Now waiting on the guy to get a new battery and replace. Maybe 30 minutes. It's not a cheapo,
either and specific to the car. A "Bosch". $200+ w/ tax.

THEN I will run the car on an expressway for a bit... THEN get bloodwork.

 

[AttyPops]

It might be a short, or you left a light on somehow. Didn't they just tear your dash apart?

Anyway, you'll know soon, if the new battery goes dead. And as a bonus, you got a new battery (you needed one at 8 years).

 

[SilverBear]

No battery until mid-afternoon. Had to order.

My gut is telling me main starter fuse/relay. $16. I shall get a new one once the new
battery is installed. I can swap it with the wiper fuse/relay and see what happens.

But yeah... old battery... Winter coming up.

Agree about Winter. Might as well replace it now.

But relay? I would think your door locks would still work if so.

 

[SilverBear]

If the battery did not have enough power to keep the main relay activated (it's the
very first thing following the battery in the schematic) - or if the relay itself is
faulty/iffy/sticky, then there's no power to anything else. It could very well explain
the starter problem a couple weeks ago. SHRUG! $16 experiment. Will just swap
it first with the wiper relay (same part number). If the wipers start acting up
afterwards... Bingo.
