Default Auto Battery Problems! My battery has been being drained..to a point where it cant be recharged...?

I got my Alternator checked, but they said its good and still kickin' out power. So what else could it be? A fuse?

Weird. I would have said alternator too. Sometimes batteries just go bad. A repair shop should be able to test it and tell you about how much life it has left.

Yea, like the above person stated, sometimes they go bad. If the battery is a cheaply made one or if it's really old. I suggest taking it to your local auto parts store and checking it out. If it truly dead, they can try to charge it for you, to see if it is still possible to charge. If not, just purchase a new one. I recommend one with a long warranty, that's what I have.

If the battery does not take a "charge" it is bad and should be replaced. Batteries actually use a chemical reaction inside to produce the volts and amperage by drawing the "water" through fins. You would definetly be better off not messing around with the old battery also make sure when you purchase your new battery you look for a cca rating rather than just a ca rating that means the new battery was tested cold and not at a warmer temperature and will perform better in cold temperatures anyway good luck to you
