Easy to battery low - Lands Phones

bad door switch, dose your dome light go out when you close the door? brake light can be a tail light out, put 4way flashers on and see if on doesnt flash. but most common is low brake fluid in the reserve. if its not low a common problem is its sensor an easy fix the replace comes with a new cap just unplug the 2 wires on wireline and plug in the new . battery light comes on if the battery is low or if the alternater is bad . jump the car, once running disconnect the neg. battery terminal if the engine stops the alternater is bad if not get the battery tested

hard starts. ,
if battery low, starter and spark will be low.
if battery charged 100% spark is strong. starts easy
if you tune it up, year not stated.
new sparkplugs, filters.allow for easy starts

I'm assuming you mean DTC C0562
ABS Device Voltage Low (2008-2009 Models)
Let's start with the easy stuff.

Some conditions that are possible to cause this fault:

Charging system malfunction
Excessive battery draw, or extended idling in heavy traffic
Weak battery or undercharged
Fault ground in the system

My mistake. Obviously, there IS an MDM X4.

Your owner's manual makes no mention of a battery. http://www.minidisc.org/manuals/sony/sony_mdm-x4.pdf .

I found it at http://www.minidisc.org/part_Sony_MDM-X4.html .

The backup battery that help the system keypad/receiver unit to operate it is low in power and it is dying and in need of a new battery replacement.Traced the system back where main junktion and overide to the system box unit is should have the battery there.This battery really easy to do a replacement.The battery it is like a similar to a motor cycle battery.

Hello,

how long have you been using this phone? The battery cell is weak, and cannot hold power for long even after charging battery for longer period. That's why its easy to low battery.

The best thing to do is to get another battery, charge very well before use and battery will last longer.

Also what could make your phone easy to low battery is if you use it to play videos, snap pix, make too many calls and so on.

How often you use your phone will determine how long the battery will last.

Good luck.

If the clicking sound that you describe is the solenoid cycling, I suggest that you LOAD test the battery.

Cycling happens when you do not have enough AMPS available to fire off the starter... goes like this: Enough battery to fire lights, etc, but when starter is engauged, not enough power to trun starter,....voltage drops, soleniod de energizes,...then with no load, it can re energize, and so it cycles like that...

Load test should reveal battery or connection issue. Do not parts replace, by just guessing, independently test each part. Especially the battery.

Here is why: say you have a low state of charge in the battery...Is it the battery or is the battery a victim? A test at this instance WOULD show battery has no capacity...BUT, when properly recharged (takes about 4 to 6 hours on a SHOP charger) it may not be the culprit..

Very easy to blow money needlessly, without independent component testing...

Taking the above example one step further: IF you had a battery at a low state of charge, (for example lights left on) ...At this time a charging system test would show the system is not charging to spec. BUT it is due to the low battery contition, due to serious discharge from leaving lights on.... Battery MUST be full charged and the system tested again...

You can see how easy it is to misdiagnose these types of issues...

have you tried a different connection cord?? if so then, if the ipod is kinda "old" then the battery might have already been worn out. Ipods are really easy to burn out the battery. hope this helps. thanks

is it connected properly?there should be a green line going back & forth on a "battery" if the battery is no good,theyre cheap on Ebay.Make sure its new,check shipping costs as they vary.Open up the back-4 screws.Lift out battery.FULLY recharge.Very easy.
