1996 Buick Century Battery Replacement
Ron’s question:
” I have a 1996 Buick Century. I drove it in the morning. In the evening, as I tried to start it the instrument lights came on breifly then everything went dead (no lights, radio, etc). I have not yet checked it but it seams if the battery is going out the lights and the radio would work. Do you think it is just the battery or could it be something else. Thanks! I enjoy your web site.”
Answer:
It’s probably just the battery, but of course check the battery connections as a loose terminal can do the same exact thing. If you want to save money but still do it right, jump start the car and go to a place like Auto Zone. They will check your battery for free and your alternator, and if you need a battery, buy one there and they also install it for free.
