OK...again you have to pardon my ignorance. I decided to change my head lights to xenon lamps. Because I could not figure out how to get the lights up, without them going on, I decided to change them out with the car running, so as not to wear down the battery.
The change out went fine, and from time to time I would turn the car off and then back on when I was preping the new lights for install. When finished I shut the car off.
I did notice that the fans in front went on while I was doing the service.
about 5 minutes later I tried to start the car and there was nothing. No click, no interior lights dimming..nothing.
There appeared to be sufficient voltage as all the lights in the car went on and they appeared bright. And since I did the service with the car running, I did not think I would be draining the battery.
Anyway, to make a long story short, after waiting 20 minutes, the car started right up. Is there some sort of breaker that wont let the car start for a while under certain circumstances.
Please let me kow.
THANKS |
