the battery terminal (especially the negative) may not be getting a tight enough connection to the battery post. Remove the terminals and retighten as much as you can. If you see that the terminals have any wear, just replace the terminals with a new 10 dollar terminal.

The battery was too dead to hold a charge. If it starts the next day, keep running it. Rusty’s alternator seems fine you were getting a reading of 13.9, it should be about 14. If it doesn’t start the next day. You may need a new battery.

Hate to say it but maybe Rusty is gone. It’s time to clean your stuff out and either sale it or junk it. Especially since you done want to put any more money into it. Knock on wood my car is five years old and still has the same battery from when I purchased the car. If it’s the battery than rough between 5-8 years is battery life.
@KrycoKid426 15 күн бұрын
It's literally a bad battery. It's nothing else. The dash will go wild when the battery dies. That's normal. What you have is a parasitic drain on the vehicle when it's parked. Pick up a battery tender and leave it on when you're not using the van. I have a battery tender on my summer car when I'm not using it, or when it's parked for the winter.

@theindyjt 14 күн бұрын
@@Ken_Domik If you've got a drain on the battery somewhere it will just drain the battery back down when you don't drive it for awhile. The biggest culprits are window wipers. If you test in a few days and it's low more, you have a drain and will have to start pulling fuses from the fuse box until you hit one where the battery does drain out.

Your battery is too old. Replace it and rusty will start fine all the time. If not, you will continue to be jumping it. If you keep this van, that is the only solution.
@mikewiremt 15 күн бұрын
To me it seems you have parasitic draw on the battery. Alternator seemed to be charging the battery after you got it running and driving, so I don't think that is bad. Maybe the battery is starting to go bad, but I'd check first and make sure you didn't leave something plugged into the inside power (chargers, etc.) that would drain the battery. Start with a good full charge to the battery, get yourself a decent battery charger if you don't have one. Maybe consider a trickle charger for when Rusty sits for extended periods of time, it'll save your battery from things like this. Good luck Ken!!
@DIYHomesteadProjectsDIYHP10 15 күн бұрын
Hi Ken, you just need a new battery and then put it on a solar battery maintainer when you are not driving the vehicle regularly. They are cheap and do a great job to trickle charge the battery and prevent it from sulfating from lack of use. It will be ready to go when you are. Best affordable item you can get for a car that isn't driven very often and you will get many years out of your new battery.

Unfortunately I think that battery is toast. The batteries from Costco have a 48 month free replacement warranty and are cheaper than most places.

@@Ken_Domik I would say the age and sitting for long periods of time are against it. The electronics in these cars will drain it in about a week or so. If you can take the battery out and have it load tested. I have an elderly friend who doesn't drive much and I have dealt with tons of battery problems with him. All the warning lights that are on your screen are because of low battery voltage. It's hard to diagnose problems over you tube but my friends problems were all the same as yours. If it sits buy the battery tender on amazon. install is easy and problem solved. Batteries need exercise so sitting isnt good. Love the videos.

Does anyone else get triggered by Ken turning to accessory mode first for a few seconds before trying to start? That aside, many light issues can be alternator-related. And it’s best to drive a car for a while to charge it (if the battery and alternator are known to be good). But I’m no auto expert and those are just things I always heard.

It looks like the trusty old MagnaPower is done for. What is the date code on your battery? Save a few Maple Leafs and replace it with a WalMart (N)EverStart. Wal Mart has decent warranties on batteries, check your local listings and replace it before the warranty expires. Keep it on a Battery Tender if you plan to let it sit for long periods. It looked like your alternator is charging at about 14V, which should be OK-ish. Good luck Ken.

I would have the same problem with my Grand Caravan. The fuel pump would stay on even if the truck was off and would drain the battery. I would have to rechatge it. There is a hack for this. It's a cable you order and change the fuses places with this cable and keeps it shut off until you start the truck. The flickering is maybe because there is not enough power. There are lots of known problem with these trucks. Too much problems, get anotherone. Keep up the good work and take care.

Hey Ken, it would be interesting on your next Vlog if you would you rate Rusty’s problems with all the vehicles you’ve had going back to when you started driving? I know it’s not AS STRESSFUL right now because you do have 2 working vehicles with the Volkswagen and moose, but I’m just curious. Imagine if Rusty was your daily driver to your 9 to 5 and your wife had another daily driver to her 9 to 5 and that’s it. I am 43 and two years ago. I got my first check engine light ever in a car. Unfortunately, that led to a complete engine and transmission failure. Both covered under warranty both were replaced. The joys of living and working in the great smoky mountains. My house and Job parking situation was over 1000 feet in the air at each place. Killed my transmission and then engine.

When Rusty is on, check the voltage at the terminals. If it’s less than 13.5, your alternator is bad. When you rev the engine on rusty, the voltage should go up because the alternator provides more juice when the revs are higher. Also, you can have the parts stores hook your battery up to a tester to see if it’s bad. You can also buy a battery tester
