[QUOTE="wvmystichrome, post: 13442836, member: 29010"] The battery in my 95 Lincoln goes dead. Kind of common where the car does not get drove a whole lot. Computers drain it pretty quickly. OK I charge it up to drive it the other day. I usually keep a battery tender on it but had not because I had drove it to the inspection station a month - 6 weeks before. No problems. Well battery charger says it found a dead cell in the battery. Well I push recondition battery and it goes thru it's paces for about 2 days and comes back with battery good. I kept the tender on it with no problems. Get in and start it up to go to work Friday and the little battery light comes on. Car kind of jerks a little on idle. Ford tech at local dealership said to test at idle between the positive and negative for charging volts. He said I should have 13 something. I had 14.44 with lights ON and 14.60 with the lights off. Any ideas if it is the battery or the alternator? I hate to lay out $100.00+ for a battery if it is the alternator. Oh and the battery is about 3 years old. Thanks [/QUOTE]
