If your car won’t start and the accessories don’t have any power, you likely have a dead battery. However, to determine if the battery must be replaced or can be recharged, a technician will have to perform some diagnostic tests. Battery services we provide at Colonial Volkswagen of Medford include:
With special tools, we can perform a voltage test to determine if your battery is too old and can no longer hold a charge, or if it’s still in good condition.
