    Would it be possible the terminal is the fault?

    My 06 Lincoln zephyr has the check charging system light on. If I go to start it early in the morning when it’s chilly, it cranks normally but won’t start as if the fuel pump isn’t working but it is, after three tries of cranking it starts.

    08 Honda Pilot changed alternator and battery. Battery light came back on a week later. I’m thinking maybe a faulty alternator that I bought.

      Decided not to take it back in, I honestly felt that after being told it was fixed both times I had it in by the same mechanic, I didn't feel "the third time's the charm" was going to work. Bought a scanner and it says the new alternator is fine and battery passed it's test as well, the only thing I did notice is that when it did come on briefly, it wasn't draining the battery but seemed to be idling 2-300 rpm higher and tester said alternator was max charge, lasted a few seconds then turned off and ran like normal

    I have a ford five hundred 2005 limited and tye battery on my car died. After I changed the battery, the horn started to blare and the engine wasn't starting. Apparently, it was an issue with the passive anti theft system and it wasn't allowing it to start. The solution is whenever you change the battery on this car one is supposed to take off the positive terminal off and then another person needs to sit in the car and hold the key to start the engine while pressing a small black switch which is under the left side of steering wheel near driver's left knee, at the same time when you try to start it another person need to connect the positive terminal and the car will start. The dealership asked me to tow in the car and said they will charge 200$ for it. Additionally, before I put in the new battery, when I jump started the car, I saw all kinds of lights like check engine, check transmission, check charging system and now after changing the battery and doing the above steps all lights are gone and car worked fine and I hope it keeps driving fine.

    My 17 accord LX starts up fine. Replaced alternator and battery after it didn’t turn on for me about a month ago. Since replacing alternator, my Car has a very rough idle specifically when the AC is on. If I drive the car in a rush and turn the ac on too the “check charging system” message pops up for me.

    I drive a 2007 ford escape and while I was driving the dash lights, radio, signal lights all turned off. The car was still driving, but all the electrics kept coming on and turning off. Then when i got off work, my car was dead. I got a jump and it started up. On the way home the electrics we’re going out again and started to smell this stink smell, like dead fish or rotten eggs. When I finally got home I checced under the hood and the battery was smoking and sizzling….. what I also noticed is my coolant was EXTREMELY low. I’m praying a new battery and some coolant will fix the issue of what I assume is an overheated battery. But I have no idea. What sucs is either way, I have to replace the battery. Does any one have any idea what I’m dealing with?

      Seems like the alternator may not work anymore. I know you probably got it fixed by now.
      But when the car is running, you can unhook either the positive or negative. If it shuts off your alternator is bad.

      Water pump impaired or out . High temperature. Of course belt is first to check , usually water pump make noise because bearing an seals are trashed .
      Change it but also change thermostat.
      First make sure belt isn’t slipping and needing replaced. Actually you also need to change it when pump is changed so it’s not wasted money .
