The battery in my car seems to have died, despite charging the car will not start except with jump leads. It is apparent the battery fitted is not the original but a 26Ah off the shelf flooded battery.
What is the specification of the oem battery, how many Ah, crank current etc? Who makes it and what would be a suggested better one? Alternatively one with integral LED condition monitor would be great.
Would it be a big or complex job to put the vehicle electronics on another battery and keep this topped up with the solar cell I have fitted. As the car is off road I'm concerned about the self-drain and drain by clock, flashy lights etc and the key coding for the immobiliser getting wiped.
