1995 Pathfinder, new battery, doesn’t hold charge

Jul 19, 2008 2 Replies

My son?s Pathfinder?s seven year old battery would not hold the charge if left for a few days. He bought a NEW battery and everything was fine for one day. This morning battery was dead. Jumped battery and he left. Battery dead and jumped 2 more times. He took my car to work! Any ideas? Thanks!


Sounds like it is not being recharged as he drives. Bad alternator?

Does the charge light come on with the engine stopped and the ignition key turned to the on position without cranking the engine? If not, the alternator is bad. Good luck. Al
