How to Lengthen Your Car Battery's Life
While batteries aren’t the most expensive vehicle component, they certainly cost enough to make you want them to last long. Here’s how to get the most out of your car battery:- Try not to take too many short trips; consolidate errands into longer trips when possible.
- Fasten the battery in and make sure it’s always fairly tight.
- Don't use headlights or interior lights with the engine off (in accessory mode).
- Clean off any corrosion on the battery terminals.
- Park the car in the shade, so the battery does not overheat.
- Check the voltage (it should be around 12.7 volts or above) once a month.
- Don’t let your vehicle remain idle for extended periods.
