I believe that that any interior lights left on, will shut off automatically after a certain amount of time ? Does anyone know if that also includes the visor vanity mirror light ?
The reason I ask is because I replaced the visor on the passenger side because of a broken hinge. Now the on the driver side is broken ? The mirror never gets used, yet it still broke. Go figure. I had a dead battery the other day. A 18 month old Motorcraft battery.
I took it to the dealer because it is still under warranty. They said they load tested it and it checked out fine ? I can't figure out why it went dead. It has been fine ever since, but it makes me uncomfortable wondering if it will happen again.
I checked all the cells today with a battery hydrometer, or is a Hygrometer ? not sure. 5 cell read in the green, 1 cell read fair ? Bad Battery ?
Thanks for any and all comments.
