My batts going flat in only 1 day w/o driving! Anyone recommend a good electrician with reasonable prices?

Sounds like a dud battery.

Took my daughters car to a K Mart workshop and they load tested the battery and charging system. Price of battery was cheap

I can recommend Jenkins Auto Elec in Norma Rd Myaree. Luke and Matt know their stuff (no I don't work there but I went to school with Luke).

Sounds like the battery is a dud if it goes flat in a day, or else something is draining it. Check the water. If OK try the RAC battery callout, as they will test it free and a replacement will be $60 to $80 depending on capacity. If you know someone with a multimeter check amps between battery and disconnected lead. Should be close to bugger all, enough for radio memory hold and immobiliser. Something like a 5watt globe would draw .4A which would drain a battery in a day.

dont get an RAC battery, they suck!!

sounds like a battery problem in which case youre not going to need the worlds greatest electrician (macka will do). as chris said take it down to kmart or the local garage, they will be able to sort u out

[Guest jamomatt]
