7.0 - Battery Test
7.1 – Start Testing
Performing Battery Test while it is still in the car:
Vehicle that was running has to have its engine OFF first and then switch ON the
headlights for 30 seconds to remove the surface charge. After the headlights had
been switched OFF, let the battery rest for at least 1 minute to recover before
testing commences.
The car engine and all other accessory loads must be OFF during test in order to
have accurate results. When attaching the analyzer clips, make sure that the
battery posts were not oxidized or badly corroded. Clean them first before
clamping to it. Do not clamp onto the steel bolts directly which may give
inaccurate and inconsistent results.
Testing on stand-alone batteries:
Clean the battery posts with a wire brush prior testing. For side post batteries,
install stud adaptors. Do not use steel bolts for better results.
