My Car AC Drains My Battery by phemsie(m): 2:41pm On Sep 10, 2020 |
Good dey car gurus, please I drive a Honda baby boy, anytime I uses AC in my car enemy if it's just for 30 minutes I mus Ty visit a battery charger the next day. But if I don't use AC my battery last for long. Even if I don't drive the car for days a along as I didn't use AC whenever I crank the engine it will snap to life. Please what exactly is going on, is it that my AC was connected directly to battery, or is my alternator gone. Please help cc: GAZZUZZ cc: nurey |

phemsie: Take it to a good rewire specialist. Is rewire problem maybe they connect the ac directly to the battery |

phemsie: You have under charge issues. Your alternator charges below 12v with the air-conditioning turned on. You should look in that direction. 1 Like |

Something similar happened to my car of recent. I had infinity a2 class B convertible.. Op someone must have messed with your cars brainbox or the Back front gear Armstring There's and easy fix to this problem and less expensive on the long run. Change the engine of this vehicle.... The cost should be around 700-800k as at now. Tank me later if this helps.

GAZZUZZ: Thanks you sir, I will definitely do that. I think changing the alternator completely will be better or what do u suggest. |

phemsie: You most likely have an under-charging issue. The alternator is the culprit. I had a similar issue in late 2017 |

Alternator brush. I used to have those on my landcruiser. Once I use the AC and full beams on during the rain. It's trouble. I can feel my engine not having enough power. If those are off it normal. So i first tested the alternator with a volt meter. I got a max of 12.9 then I took it to someone to check my alternator. He suspected the brushes. But taking it apart we discovered one of the winding was loose. He didn't have a soldering iron. So i took it home and soldered it my self. Mounted it back in the engine and viola. 14.2v so much power. With high beams and ac I got 14.1 so that's how I fixed the problem |

[quote author=pragmaticme post=94001847][/quote] I got a new alternator for 9k in ladipo market and the rewire collected 1k to fix |

Good evening all,i am having similar issue with my 2008 CRV. Also my ac works without switching it on. What could cause this. |
Re: My Car AC Drains My Battery by phemsie(m): 1:09am On Sep 18, 2020 |
Take it to a good rewire, I guess the AC was wired to ignition directly. He should be able to separate the wiring and redo it the proper way. inagbe1: |
