Battery Problems
Ive just started having problems with my 96 Chevy AMPs droping when the
AC is on, Ive replaced the Battery and the Alternater and the problem fixed itself for about 3 to 4 days then it started back up again. I can hame my radio blasting and my lights on and be pretty much right on 14 Amps maybe a little lower, but soon as i turn on my AC my AMPS drop majorly i have not had it get lower then 12 yet but today it came really close, anyone have any ideas on how to either find what is wrong or know whats wrong? The Air Works Gets cold. |

Battery Problems
Does this happen only when stopped at a light or does this happen while
driving? Also do you notice an RPM drop while the A/C is running?

going down to near 12 with A/C on at idle isn't a rare thing. My car does it too. AC just pulls a lot of current, and with the heat of the summer electrical things run hotter and less efficiently. -- KU40 |

KU40, My truck just started doing this really, right before all this started i had just taking a Trip to Arizona For school and The hole way there and back it never left 14. That was with the A/C all the way up Lights going at night and My Sterio (Custom) going. I was talking to old mechanice and he said it sounds like a Short(Old owner of the Truck) Could it be the Control Panel for the A/C? |
