Hi there, knackerd my batteries - left them discharged for a fortnight now they won't re-charge. I have a winter pack. Do I need to replace them both, or will replacing one do the job?
Can I easily remove th eunwanted half of my winter pack?
Also minimum battery specs as I understand them are;
95Ah
650 Cold Cranking Amps
is this correct?
Many thanks,
Tom

Just put one new one in (drivers side) and remove the one from the passenger side....MAKE SURE you remove the cables that connected to it..as if left one will be live and could short out.

I just insulated my positive terminal, so that it couldn't short on anything.haydn callow wrote:..MAKE SURE you remove the cables that connected to it..as if left one will be live and could short out.

And go for a new SB of 95Ah rating or more - sooner or later it will pay dividends not to skimp on battery power
