Ok guys, this happened twice now last night and tonight which was my car battery just dead twice in a row. My car was just completely dead no alarms, no lights, etc.
It worked just fine after i jumped the battery like 5seconds.
Do you guys think the problem is the battery? I have 20k on my baby but I think the stock battery lasts at least 3 or 4 yrs depends on how to use. Any help/infos would be highly appreciated.
I'm thinking to take it to the auto shop tomorrow morning to find out what's wrong.

 

did you look to see if the dot is blue....

 

could be an alternator problem. if the alternator isn't charging the battery it can die very easily but will still work if jumped.

 

I bought my evo in Aug 2004, it has been only 1 n half yr old. Anyways thanks for the infos. I'll go to auto shop to find out what's wrong.

 

Check Alternator. If you have done any mods or dashwork make sure you aren't shorting any wires out either. Check ground strap to make sure it is tight and of course make sure your bolts are tight on the battery.

 

Oh yeah forgot there is usually a pro rated refund for a dead battery if it has a warranty check your owners manual

 

Recently, I bought 2 neon interior lights 15" on driver and passenger sides. And only turned on twice for like 30mins while I was going home from work. These lights are 12Voltage. Do u guys think these neon lights caused the problems? I'll check the alternator tomorrow.

 

Make sure the neon is hooked up right. You may be slowly draining your battery from a bad ground. Did you have good installation directions to hook these up? Were they hooked up to the car wiring harness or straight to the battery?

 

I think you just need a new battery. FWIW the stock battery on my Z only lasted about 2 years (only 15k miles). I thought I was having a wiring issue because the car would not turn on once every 7-10 days. Sometimes no lights at all. Sometimes some dash lights. If I remove and then attach the battery connection, it would start up every time though.

I had a battery check done and they said it wasn't holding it's charge consitently. But if your neons aren't working right I suspect the wiring might be off.

Sears' Automotive stores can do a battery check for like $8. I'd recommend that.

 

If by "worked fine after jumping" you could start the car, etc again it is probably a connection on the battery. By jumping it, you are moving the terminals around.

If it needs to charge before it works fine, then it is probably the battery. If the alternator wasn't charging, you would have lights on the dash come on. There are places that check battery condition for free, that would be the frist step.

 

Wow great feedbacks guys, I highly appreciated all your help and infos. This morning, I started the engine and worked just fine and after few minutes of driving, I suddenly heard some kind of noise coming out from the engine bay. I got too scared and stopped by the nearest auto shop and found out that the connection on the battery was way loosed. And neons lights easy, just wiring hook up to the cigarrate hole.
Have safe and happy holidays everyone!

 

Glad to hear things are ok. Drive On
