Hi,

2003 Maxima, 70k miles.

Wife calls me on her cell phone to say car has died at side of the
road. I arrive at the scene and attempt to start car. Hear starter
solenoid clicking, battery is dead.

Attach jumper cable from other car and Maxima starts. Run it for a few
minutes then attempt to frive home. Car dies after a few minutes.

Go and get a new battery and install. Old battery is at least 3 years
old, Honda brand. Car starts and all is well. Run the card myself for
3 days, then give to wife saying it is fixed. Later that day I get a
call to say car has died, battery is flat.

There is no check engine light. I assume the alternator is faulty.

Any input appreciated.

Al Moodie.
