Six Signs Of A Dead Car Battery

There are a few tell-tale signs that your vehicle’s battery is about to fail (or has failed).

Here’s a look at them:

1. No Response At Ignition

If your car doesn’t start when you turn the ignition key, it probably means the starter motor is getting zero power from a dead battery.

2. The Starter Motor Cranks But The Engine Won’t Turn Over

Sometimes, the starter motor might crank slowly, but the engine won’t start. This is a sign of either a dead car battery or a faulty starter.

If the starter cranks at the usual speed, but the engine still won’t start, you probably have a good battery, but there are issues with the fuel or spark plug.

3. Sluggish Cranking Times

Frigid weather reduces battery performance, so it’s normal for your engine to take longer to crank to life.

However, if there hasn’t been a temperature drop, and your engine still stutters before turning over, then you could have a weak battery, bad alternator, or starter issues.

4. The Engine Starts But Then Dies Immediately

Sometimes a vehicle starts, but instead of idling, the engine immediately dies.

In this case, the battery’s charge may be just enough to turn over the engine.

However, the battery then fails, causing disruptions in the signals sent to the engine control module (ECM), and the engine then dies.

5. No Door Chime Or Dome Lights

Usually, when you open the vehicle door, the door lights turn.

Similarly, there’s usually a chime that plays when the key is inserted into the ignition.

When these don’t work as they’re supposed to, a flat car battery is a usual culprit.

6. No Headlights Or Dim Headlights

Dim or flickering headlights, when coupled with an engine that won’t start, usually point towards a weak battery. This happens when the battery has just enough charge to power the headlights but not to crank the engine.

If the headlights don’t turn on at all, then you likely have a dead car battery.
