For the last few weeks, I have been driving the car only once a week, and for only a few miles. I’ve been too busy to do anything else! Over the past few weeks, I have noticed that the car is getting harder and harder to start. This week, it almost didn’t turn over. I decided to check the battery. Sure enough, it was low. After three days on a trickle charge, it is still not fully charged. This is not a good sign. It would appear that I now have an electrical “leak” somewhere, or that the relatively new battery is slowly dying. Perhaps I should start driving the car more so the alternator has time to charge the battery. Yes, that might be helpful.
I’m also still checking for water leaks. So far, there are none, but I also haven’t driven the car long enough to heat it up very much. Maybe next week, I’ll take the car on a long drive.
