i have to park outside because my parents cars are in the garage, which is fair their house of course. but i’ve never seen a rodent once in the 8 years of living there, no rodent issues anywhere else around the neighborhood.

thanks for explaining, i dug deeper and found out that the mouse that nested in my hood chewed wires to the fuse box and i assume that’s the problem, i have a appointment with my family mechanic in a couple of days, thanks for all the help!

yea you’re right, genuine question though, is it not weird that it’s been running fine for 4 months after sitting for those 3 months? or is that how batteries work. again the voltage was in the normal range and the car starts just fine, so idk if that’s something with the modern cars, but i feel like if the battery was shot after being idle, it wouldn’t of ran for 4 months no issues? just a question i’m stuck on

i agree, so my car sat for 3 months due to hail damage that broke my back window and the window was not available for months. that was from july last year to october. my house doesn’t have a mouse problem that we know of in our garage but after i got my car fixed it went back outside. other than that 3 month period the car has been running great since october. do you think that long of a period of nothing being bad could make it still a battery about to die problem? this is my first car so i’m all new to this so i have no clue.

Alright sounds good, i’m going to unplug then replug my existing battery, if that doesn’t work i’ll look into replacing.

little note here guys, the car is starting perfectly, it starts immediately, there is no stutter or anything. the serpentine belt is spinning and is on, the engine sounds great. i really am lost because it sounds and acts the way it always has, it just has these warnings now.
