I walked out of my house yesterday morning and as I approached my Mounty I noticed that the tail lights were on very dimly. I thought it was strange because I arrived home the previous day after dark; I would have noticed if I forgot to turn the lights off. I open the door and, wouldn't you know, the light switch was halfway between parking lights and off and of course no interior lights, no door dinger, and it would not turn over. Good thing I have a spare Ranger for just such occasions.
When I got home from work, I pulled the battery and put it on the charger but the charger said it was full. I whipped out my handy meter and sure enough, it had 13.5 volts. I put it back in and the Mounty started up like nothing happened.
Go figure, that was my excitement for the week.
