I'm not sure what's wrong with my battery and was wondering if I could get some helpful input. I have a brand new battery installed. Its maybe two months old. At idle, with nothing running except the jeep, i'm at 13.5 volts. When I turn on my radio,a/c or heat, and especially headlamps, my vots drop to 11 and sometimes 10.5.
Tonight I had the heat blowing, lamps on, and radio on and the volt meter dropped to 9 at idle and my check guages lamp came on. Then it shot back up to 11. I pressed the gas to about 1500 rpms and my dash lights and headlights got brighter. When I let off the gas they got dimmer plus the voltmeter dropped.
Can anyone help me diagnose this problem?
