hi i have an elddiss crusader storm 1992 and the battery is not trickle charging but boiling.also since this happened we also have no blown air heating or water tank gauge could this all be linked please help.
A dud cell will cause a battery to boil my advice is to scrap itThe battery boiling would indicate it is being over charged so the output of the charger is suspect, it should be no more than 13.8 volts if left connected permanently.
It's difficult to say if it is the cause of the other things not working but if the over voltage is excessive then perhaps it could be.
Did I say it wouldn't? and if it's been boiling it may well be u/s now.. but not necessarily due to an internal fault.A dud cell will cause a battery to boil my advice is to scrap it
If the charger is faulty and is delvering AC and not DC the battery will boil. I have had this happen, it is easy to check for this with a multimeter.The battery boiling would indicate it is being over charged so the output of the charger is suspect, it should be no more than 13.8 volts if left connected permanently.
