@@AdamMechanic particularly for me as I was seeing it trickle charge ok and have the volts and then scraping my head on why it wouldn't start. Going to get an AMP clamp

Good stuff, let me know how you get on! It’s worth checking the battery clamps too, make sure they are all tight between the clamps and cables too.

Without starting, the current is about 12A . I think after turning of key the amp should be within 100 milli ampere range

Hi, you would want the battery to be outputting at least 70% of the amperage that is stated on the battery label.

Hello, 385.2 A is the number of ampere that remains or is it the number of ampere that was used on the total capacity of the battery??

Hi @@oussmi21 , that is the battery amperage used, it is not total possible amps output. If the weather was colder, or the starting system had a poor connection for instance, the amperage would be a little higher.
