Matt Posted 26 June 2005 Posted 26 June 2005 Been washing my car today, I didn't realise how long I had been cleaning my Car, I'm not sure when I started, it must have been around 11.30ish and I finished about 2.45pm, but as I said I hadn't realised how long I had been cleaning it for, I washed it, waxed the whole car, cleaned all my trim up, put "Back to Back" on the bumpers, I cleaned all the windows with "Auto Glym" I cleaned all the inside of the car, even hoovered the car! I had the radio on during all of this, Just tried to start the car up...The battery is dead! It didn't even "cough" it just didn't make any sound and would start or doing anything - At all! Just had to pop up to Halfords to get a Battery Charger! So cleaned my car perfectly and now I can't go out in it

Anish Posted 26 June 2005 Posted 26 June 2005 unlucky Matt! That's why I never clean my car, at best I put it through one of the car wash machines at the petrol station!

Matt Posted 26 June 2005 Author Posted 26 June 2005 Vauxhall Corsa (W reg) just been for a cruise in it! I gave up with charging the battery, I found some Jump Leads in the garage, connected my car up to my mums (New - Toyota Corrola) and it worked my baby started! So I went for a ride in my car for half hour, and this should have charged the battery... ...I'll see in the morning!
