Now, when i got home from school, i decided to bust out the OBD and the multimeter to test my battery. I took the focus for a ride for about 10 mins...when i parked it it was full...12.6V. Then when i went into the cockpit to use the OBD i turned my car to the on position...looked for codes, then tried to start, and it wouldn't! But the battery still had 11.5 Volts!!
Is it amps that i should be testing or something?
Its starting to piss me off that I can just jump it and it will work.
Meanwhile when i turned off my car this morning after i had it jumped and drove it for like 10 mins, it started immediately after i turned it off. It has to be the battery losing its charge...
