|
|
| On a trip I had a dead battery. I went to an auto parts store and used their multimeter. It said I had 11 volts at the battery. I limped home without a headlight. Made it. What is wrong? I had the alternator checked and it is fine. |

Any idea how old the battery is? I could be time to replace it. _________________ Ride safe.

An auto parts tore should be able to load test it. _________________ 93 LT (x2)
