My experience is with modern electrical systems just an idle speed connection doesn't really drive the charge (or the boost) and you need to rev higher than idle in the Subaru to activate the generator to put out a higher output. I've run into the same situation boosting cars in the winter .. idle, no boost .. rev a bit higher, no problem boosting!
Thanks for the tip. I was thinking that too and did a small amount of reving, plus the idle was enough last time it needed a boost, but perhaps this time it needed more. It is much colder now too.
Thanks for literally taking us along for the ride. I appreciate all the work involved in recording and editing your videos.
Thanks. Happy you enjoy watching.
