Azera TG (2006-11) :: Battery Recharge Light Came On

I was sitting at a red light and when I got ready to turn left my car died and everything locked up. When I looked down I had a message flashing that said recharge battery! I drive a 2006 Hyundai azera. I cant get under the hood because my hood latch broke inside my car. What does the code mean for recharge battery? Was it because it was raining and maybe got wet??

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2001 - A/C Not Blowing Cold Air - Need Recharge?

I think the truck needs a recharge, it's not blowing any cold air. The question is - which port do I use? There's one on the top of the accumulator and another in the line just off the passenger side of the radiator, near the coolant tank.

My only recharge experience was after I replaced a leaking accumulator in my 2007 Crown Vic police interceptor, and this obviously doesn't look quite the same.

Prius (Gen 3) :: Only 2 Or 3 Bars On The Battery In Stop And Go Traffic

I have been driving my new 2011 prius for a week now and have noticed that in stop and go traffic I occasionally get down to three bars before the engine kicks in. Is this normal?

Also today I was in a traffic jam for a half hour and got to 2 bars a few times(lots of stop and go). Is this normal also? When driving on the freeway the bars are always 6-8. There are no colors on the bars, just white.

Prius (2004-09) :: Slow Acceleration At A Dead Stop While Running Only On Battery

The prius stock battery is weak compared to my wifes Mercury Mariner battery. The Mariner acceleration on battery alone is excellent - she can get up to 30 mph in no time on just the battery. In my prius it has very slow acceleration at a dead stop while running only on battery. Is it possible to buy aftermarket (stronger) batteries for the prius so I can at least driver the car up to 30 mph only on battery?

Prius (2001-03) :: CEL Comes On - Could 12v Battery Causing This?

Today while I was out driving in the country, my 2001 Prius with 140,900 miles pulled an error code. The red triangle popped up on the dash along with a "Check Engine" light and the car symbol with the "!" through it came on the MFD. I was able to get it back home safely by the way. The car had a weak 12v battery as it is, and I have been planning on replacing it but haven't gotten around to it yet. What I want to know though is, can a weak 12v battery cause those warning lights?

Passat (B5) :: Can Recharge AC If There Is Little Or No R134 Gas / Fluid In System?

I don't have to VAG-COM to clear any codes do I? I read some one with a Toureg had to clear a low AC fluid/gas warning to get the compressor to come on again.

Some one told me I was all out of AC fluid/gas because when the AC was turned on my car did not lose RPM at idle or power if the car was being driven. Is this man correct?

Prius (2001-03) :: Battery Dying Really Fast

So here's the deal my '02 prius' traction battery is dying really fast. But here's the thing, it will charge fully and be fine for a few months and then one day Its like the battery says, "now I don't want to play anymore." and dies really fast and is a pain to charge even a little bit. I can even drive to work (at least half an hour away) and I can get to freeway speeds and charging 95% of the way and it will still be at a very low charge. Then after a while it will charge all the time while staying fully charged. I'm eventually going to replace the battery anyway but wanted to know if it sounded like something else, too.

Prius (Gen 1) :: 2001 Car Stalled And Ran On Battery Only - P3000/123 And P3125/287

Car stalled and ran on battery only. Set code P3125, and depleted aux battery. So, I replaced the inverter and recharged aux battery.

Drove it 20-30 miles test driving it, when the MIL came on.

Drove home and found 2 codes set, 1st was set while driving, 2nd was set after parking.

P3000/123 - MPH=22 MG2.RPM=1280 SOC=65% Position=D
P3125/287 - MPH=1 SOC=60% Position=P

Any TSB on this issue?

P0300 RANDOM MISFIRE

P0301 CYL 1 MISFIRE

P0304 CYL 4 MISFIRE

Was driving on highway in mild rain and car started to shudder and stalled. I ran it on the electric motor for a while to get out of traffic so it's fairly drained. Has a year old main battery and a year old 12V Optima battery. Car has 202,000 miles.

The cat code and possibly evap were on all year as check engine light has been on. I get the triangle of death with exclamation point on the right car icon on the screen as well as the check engine light. After resetting the codes the triangle hasn't come back. Haven't rechecked the other codes as it was a borrowed generic scanner.

Just checked the 12V battery at Autozone and they say it's good but discharged. Car won't start and it seems to kill the 12V battery if left to sit. I did the throttle body and MAF clean even though they both looked ok. A little oil in the intake so I mopped it up. Didn't work. I hooked up another 12V battery with jumper cables and it doesn't work. Checked the fuel pump relay and it's ok. I pulled spark plug 1 and it was fine. Check main battery and 12V connections -all fine - tight and no corrosion.

I'll try to check fuel pressure and spark.
