Check the voltage at the battery with a DC volt meter. It is reads 12.6 volts is it 100% charged. 12.4 volts 75%, 12.2 volts 50%, and 12.0 volts 25% charged. Less than 12.0 volts is a dead battery. If the battery will not hold a charge with the negative cable disconnected it has a dead cell and must be replaced.
The 1964 VW Beetle came from the factory with a 6 volt electrical system. Unless it has been upgraded to a 12 volt system you would need a 6 volt battery. I would recommend you check the voltage of the current battery with a volt meter. If there is no battery in the vehicle, just remove a light bulb and check the voltage written on the bulb.
Check voltage on battery 12 volt you should uses a 12 volt 2 amp battery charger connect red (positive) to the + side of battery and the black (negative) to the - side of the battery.
Charge it with a 12 volt battery charger.
you can just check it properly... (on every battery volt is surely given...)
No
12 volt
The answer is 12 volts, unless the ohms meter says different,check first before you assume.
No, a 12 volt charger will overcharge a 8 volt battery and destroy it.
The battery is a 12 volt.
No
The answer is 12 volts, unless the ohms meter says different,check first before you assume.
Yes, a 12 volt battery will be damaged if charged with a 24 volt charger.
