How many cells can a 6 cell car battery run on before it no longer works?

A car battery needs all 6 cells to work.
The hardest job a car battery has to do, is crank the engine over during starting. This draws hundreds of amps (depending on engine size).
If even one cell is down, the internal resistance will severely restrict the amperage delivered and the motor won't turn.
Surely a battery with a dead cell can appear to be live. The lights and radio may work, but dimly. How long this will continue, will depend on how many ancillaries are switched on and the original charge and capacity of the battery.
A battery that cannot start the car is next to useless.

How does cryo preservation work?
Cryopreservation works by slowing down the metabolism of cells until they can no longer function. This is done by lowering the temperature until all water in the cells freeze or is removed by osmosis.
What is best thing to use to claen and protect battery terminals?
I use Battery Corrosion Guard it is a local product to the Eastern Washington area but can be found at the related links. It is a rare product that really works. Brush it on your battery terminals and the battery will wear out before it corrodes.
Can you use a larger battery in a cell phone or will it burn it up?
If, by 'larger battery' you mean one with the samevoltage but higher capacity - there's no reason why not. It will simply take a little longer to charge it. I swapped my 3.6v 600mAh battery for a 3.6v 1000mAh battery a long time ago - and the phone still works perfectly well.
What are possible hardware problems that might result in a battery not charging?
1 - the battery itself no longer works properly 2 - the battery's charging circuit (this applies to portable devices with custom lithium-ion batteries) is malfunctioning 3 - the power source is not providing enough power to charge it.
How does a battery detector works?
i think it detect the voltage left by the battery
