The signs, from mild to urgent
Batteries rarely die without warning. They usually give you a few of these first.
- The engine cranks slower than it used to
- You have needed a jump start recently
- Dash and headlights look dim when starting
- A battery or check-charging light comes on
- White or green corrosion on the terminals
- A swollen or cracked battery case
- A rotten-egg smell near the battery
- The battery is more than three to five years old
Test before you replace
A battery that seems weak can be a charging problem, a bad cable or a drain that kills it overnight. YBE load-tests the battery and checks the charging system, and can replace the battery where your car sits if it has failed.
