Hi guys, really need some help here to find some problems. I will post a video link under it. I have this 02 lx470. Recently after sit for few days or hours. When I tried to start, It just one crank, but after a few second I start second time, it start just fine. Is this a battery problem or...
I want to start this with I’m mechanically inclined but this is a whole new level for me. I’ve had a parasitic draw that would drain my battery within 5 days of not starting it for a while now. My temporary solution was to put a battery cutoff switch under the hood and if I knew I wouldn’t be...
Hi everyone!
A couple weeks ago, I bought a new battery for my hundred series, and replaced the positive terminal as it was very corroded. A few days ago, I went to the truck and found that it was completely dead. I jumped it, charged it up, and drove it for a few minutes. Three days later...
I'm needing a battery for my 4BT powered 55 that lives at 9000' in Colorado that Fits in the stock battery tray. I'm concerned that , with the ones Im looking at, have a hight at the top of posts at 8 7/8 that it might hit my hood. thoughts? I'm hoping to pick one up tomorrow.
My car is still down as we try to diagnose a transmission issue. I suspect it may be down for up to six weeks.
What is the easiest and most effective way to maintain the two batteries? They are relatively new, so i do not want to lose them. They are the wet type, where distilled water can be...
Hi there, so the alarm system on my 1991 fj80 keeps turning on by its self at random times and drains the battery completely if I dont drive it for a while, couldn't find much info on YouTube so came here, any information helps, how to fix, or how to get rid of the system, thank you for looking!
Is there such a thing? Disclaimer: I’m a fairly non-tech-savvy person regarding batteries. I’m looking at the EcoFlow batteries and similar and seeing how everyone uses them. I’m thinking I may not need that much power.
I have recently set up my fridge in the back of my 200. It previously...
been thinking about getting one for battery testing. I'm considering going 400W in case I want to test biggish solar panels at some point, but those are pricy. So, 200W it may be. (Although it appears that some may be upscaled in power with just some software instructions.) I'd want...
I was cleaning up some wiring mess under the dash of my FJ80 prior owner had a mess under there from a security system, and wiring up radio with speakers and whatnot..
After I got done everything works fine got back from a 30 min drive doing some errands shut truck off keyed it back on to check...
Right, I have a LHD Turbo diesel 5 speed with dual factory battery set up. The positive lead on the starting battery (left side when facing truck) is very frazzled and it's not providing a solid connection.
I removed the terminal end to replace it and straighten out the braid so that slides...
I am scratching my head. By incident I found out the glow plugs won't turn off and killed my alternator. Once replaced I felt the wire to the battery were hot!
The car is 1985 HJ75 Troopy with 2H motor.
Anyone had similar experience? I am just starting to read about the system including the...
I have searched Walmart's site and it says the group size 24F is compatible with my 2014. But everywhere else it says 27F is the correct group size. And then, should I consider AGM over regular? Thank you.
keys are in the ignition, battery is dead, and doors are locked. it's a totally snafu situation. I don't have access to the spare key either. Someone PM me how to get into my 80 without breaking a window. I don't want to call a locksmith and wait hours for one to show up and pay a bunch of money...
Hey guys - My right side battery took a dump and I'm looking to replace both. Issue is, I'm having trouble finding a "good" replacement for the right side, given that the terminals are oriented opposite of most group 27 batteries. I'd like to have the same unit on both sides with the same specs...
Greetings from a new member,
I have had my LX for about 4 years, and it seems to eat batteries. I have to replace the current one after one year in the car, about 5000 miles. Last one lasted about two years. Both Costco Interstate 27f. Cheap, but not what I need off road. Any suggestions, like...
Battery died, so I replaced it with a Duralast Gold 27F. + and - connections are correctly attached.
After I changed out the battery, the LC intermittently but regularly shakes and lurches at low RPMs and in tight turns, and lights dim. Once I give it gas, its fine, but the rythmic shaking...
First time dipping my toe in the water of this part of the forum, and into dual battery systems in general. I'm going to be putting a dual battery system in my daily driver FJ60 in the coming months and I'm starting the process of designing the system and acquiring parts. I have a background in...

Car would not start this morning, but did try and turn over weakly before completely dying. Odd thing was the dash and screen was on, presumably overnight, even though the car was shut off and in park. It's possible car was shut off in gear and then moved to park (kids).
Got...
