Hey guys I need some help from the experts.
So my car for a week was having an issue when I push the throttle and do some spirited driving the car completely turns off. It was a bit worry some because I would be driving 60 mph and then have to quickly
turn the car back on to drive. Now my battery will not charge and loses voltage after driving. I get a message on the dash stating "Service Charging System". I cannot drive the car for more than 10 minutes without
the juice in the battery going to 0.
I have taken my battery to Advanced Auto Parts and the battery checks out. Charges fine and is only less than a year old. I pulled the alternator out of the car and took it to a shop. They stated it works fine as well.
I am a little stumped at this point because I'm not very mechanically inclined but try to resolve all my car issues as I don't wanna pay the corvette tax to repair a measly issue. Not sure where else to go from here.
A couple of routes I can go from here that I have been researching about is to replace the solenoid in the starter or check all grounding points. Does anyone have any ideas of what it can be? Mind you the car only has
about 50k miles so its relatively new. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. As detailed as it gets since I'm such a newbie. :blueangel:
I have checked the battery, alternator, and fuses. One thing to note is my battery is located in the trunk. Not sure if this helps lol
Thank you!!
