Why is Porsche battery dead when it sets for a long time?

Why on my 2003 windstar with a new batteryit sets for 2 days and the battery goes dead when you try to start it the 4 way lights come on?

If I had to guess I would say you have a short in the electrical system that slowly drains the battery as it sits.

What happens If a car battery sets out in the rain?

Nothing. The battery is sealed an no harm will be done.

Where can one find information on battery charges?

Information about battery charges relates to either a crime or the charge that a battery holds. For battery charges in crime, charges vary from country to country. For a charge in a battery, most manufacturers state how long the battery needs to be charged for before using. Both sets of information can be found on the internet, either on Wikipedia or manufacturer websites.

1996 Chevy 2500 truck 5.7 engine starts fine after running for a while but it sometimes doesn't want to start after sitting it is getting fuel but doesn't seem to be getting fire?

Check the battery mine 1995 Z71 did the same thing changed starter still did same thing finally was told to check the battery after it sets awhile battery does not have enough juice too kick the starter in I had battery checked sure enough on cell on battery was dead bought new one not a problem since.

Can you and your fiance plan your wedding by yourselves?

Yes - especially if BOTH sets of parents are dead.

What is Porsche's differentiation strategy?

Porsche's differentiation strategy centers on delivering high-performance, luxury sports cars that blend cutting-edge technology with exceptional craftsmanship.

Can you use two jumper cables at the same time for more power to jump a car?

Short Answer:Using two batteries connected in parallel will allow you to charge a dead battery faster and start a car easier. Two cables from one good battery to one dead one is almost useless.You can absolutely not connect two charging batteries in series (i.e. two 12 volt batteries to get 24 volts) to a dead battery. You can certainly connect two charging batteries in parallel (i.e. two batteries at 12 volts to give more current at 12 volts).Explanation:If you look at some of the professional jumper set ups, such as used by highway rescue services, you will notice that some have two or three batteries connected together. There is a reason for that beyond simply the convenience of being able to wheel the batteries up to the disabled vehicle. A single batter is capable of supplying one amount of power but two batteries can supply twice as much.It takes power, not just voltage, to start a car. (Otherwise, you could start your car with a bunch of flashlight batteries strung together.) Anyone who has done this knows that when jumping a dead battery (really dead, not just anemic) you need to connect the good battery and dead battery for several minutes before there is a chance of starting. The reason is, in large part, that the connected good battery is charging the dead battery and that takes a while. If you try to start the car with the charging battery attached, then the charging battery is doing two jobs, starting and charging the dead battery. If you wait for a while, the dead battery gets some charge and stops being a large drain and if you wait long enough, the dead battery will have enough energy to help start the car along with the help of the good battery.There is more to the story though. With jumper cables you are often not making a really good connection and the very large power drain necessary to start a reluctant engine has to also overcome the poor electrical connection made by both ends of the jumper cable. The relative importance of the poor connection varies greatly because the quality of the connection depends greatly on the person doing it and the corrosion present and the tightness and area of the clamping contact. If there was enough room to connect two cables between the one good battery and the one bad battery, then that connection area would be larger and offer some potential improvement, though just waiting for five minutes is a lot easier.There are other considerations. If you are connecting two good batteries to one dead battery, then it would be very desirable that both good batteries are truly fully charged, otherwise the imbalance will tend to have power taken from the battery of greatest voltage to both batteries of lower voltage, though small voltage differences of a few tenths of a volt wont matter since the dead batter is presumably a drain to both good batteries.To connect two batteries to a dead battery, all the positive terminals need to be connected together and all the negative terminals together. This constitutes batteries in parallel. A few decades ago, when auto electronics were essentially nonexistent, the practice of putting to batteries in series to make double the voltage was called a "hot shot." Such a practice now puts the cars electronic system in danger of being fried, so should never be done.Finally, it should be noted that when jumping a dead battery, it is almost always done with the good battery in a car with the engine running. This causes the charging system to be active for the good battery. Charging systems typically provide 14 volts when charging and thus when connected to the dead battery, an greater source of power is being provided by the higher voltage at the good battery connection. Indeed, probably more energy is put into the dead batter by the charging system over a few minutes than is put by the actual good battery.For simple problems corrected by a small addition of energy, most of what has been said is irrelevant and just connecting the jumper cables gets the car started. It is in the case of cold and dead batteries where more power is needed and more of the energy has been depleted from the dead battery that these additional considerations are the key to success. Ultimately, starting a car with a dead battery needs to get enough energy into the dead battery that both it and the good battery working together can accomplish the task. Time is an asset. Give the dead battery enough time, a few to twenty minutes with the good battery in a running car and the charging system doing its job is typical.Alternate Answer:Using two jumper cables between two vehicles at the same time would have minimal effect at increasing the voltage transfer between the two vehicles. As long as the one set of jumper cables is in good working order there would be no need to use two sets. However I have seen instances where using two sets of battery cables between three vehicles (two vehicles being used to jump start one 'dead' vehicle) was necessary. These were big trucks with multiple batteries in extreme cold conditions with professionals doing the jump start. Always use caution when jump starting any vehicle.

When the sun (set sets) the trees (cast casts) long shadows. Which verbs correctly complete the sentence set casts set cast sets casts sets cast?

When the sun sets, the trees cast long shadows. "Sun" is singular and requires a singular verb: "sets". "Trees" is plural and requires a plural verb: "cast".

Are copper cookware sets long lasting?

Copper cookware sets are not long lasting. Reason being, when you cook copper, each time it melts and gets worse. So copper cookware does not last long.

How long will your Honda shadow last?

Until the sun sets.

Does the flavor of jello affect how long it sets?

No, but the location in the refrigerator can.

Got a 36 Volt golf cart and have 6 12 volt car batterys. Is there a way to hook all 6 12 volt battery up to get 36 volt or can it only be done with 3?

Yes there is a way. Make 2 sets of 3 batteries in series (+ of one battery gets connected to - of other) Now connect the to sets in parallel. Connecting the 3 in series will add the voltage to 36, connecting the two sets will keep the voltage the same but increase the capacity.
