THE CARS MAIN BATTERY IS DEAD.
WHAT IS THIS TENDER THING, A BATTERY CHARGERS/?
YES , HOW MANY AMPS IS THIS CHARGER?
MAIN BATTERY DEAD.
BATTERY LUGS LOOSE
BATTERY LUGS RUSTY, 2 CABLES 4 ENDS NOT RUSTY
OR BLEW UP HUGE FUSES./
TENDER MEANS? WHAT? NAME IT AND MODEL, FOR BEST ANSWERS AND IF WIRED BACKWARDS.
Great idea. I use battery tender. Apparently the battery is hidden under the trunk bottom cover. Shown fully here. With the Battery Minder Kit, there are cable and a plug you can just leave attached to the battery.
Most likely, Yes.
If you plan to leave your car or not to use it for a month, always remove the negative terminal of the battery. It also depends on the age of the battery, If you have an old battery then it should be 2 or 3 weeks instead of 1 month.
that usually means the battery is at a full charge and the tender automatically turns off to keep from damaging and over charging the battery. Or you dont have the tender connected directly to the battery.
Its possible the charger is telling you the battery is too dead for the charger to work. A safety feature to keep from burning up the charger.
I'm not aware of any fuses between the jumping post and the battery. You may have a short in the car that is draining power.
To change the battery, you have to remove the fuel tank. In doing so, you are disturbing the throttle cable on the RHS and pulling it out of its housing.
This is what it should look like.
And this what has happened when removing or replacing the fuel tank.
yes, the charge will bleed off just a bit in two or three days, just enough to reset the battery tender. it shouldn't take but a few minutes before the battery is again "topped off" and the green light comes on. But keep in mind that even with a battery tender, age will eventually get to your battery and it'll go bad. The battery tender extends the life of a battery but it can't extend it forever.
what else could it be? I'm with stupida dead battery WILL NOT be recognized by a battery tender thats why the light wont come on. Are you trying to jump the bike using a car that is TURNED OFF? You can hook the 2 batteries together and that will help equalize your bike battery enough that the battery tender will recognize that you are indeed connecting it to a battery or you can buy a battery charger and charge it for 20 minutes (or barrow one) which will be more than enough for the battery tender to recognzie the battery.
*edit I should mention that the reason a battery tender wont recognize a dead battery is it must see (feel) electricity from the battery. I dont know all the exact properties as in what votage it must see but if it doesnt see it it thinks its not a battery. A charger will try and charge it no matter what it may be. I mean you connect a charger to a metal bar and it will try to charge it.
oh if you hook the two batteries together im not sure the bike will start though it may. I have never tried it with a bike but at work we connect two forklift batteries together for 30 minutes and that gives it enough of a charge for our battery tenders to recognize that its charging a battery.,
