Guys and girls. Firstly I am sorry that this is not flashlight related, but you are so good with electronics, that I do want to post here.
My car's battery was one morning stone cold flat, about two months ago. So flat that I could not even unlock the car with its remote.
The battery center said I had to leave something on, as the car charges fine and the battery is like new. They did not wanted to replace the battery.
Fast forward to today, same story. Battery as flat as it can get.
Why does my charger, and others I've borrowed, all pop their fuses the moment I switch on the power?
Is there something I can do about it? Or should I invest in a older ''dumb'' charger?
I wonder what causes my battery to drain overnight? All the doors were closed, boot was closed, no radio or nothing was left on.
Its a Ford Kuga 2.5T if it matters.
