Battery Question
About two weeks ago, I had a dead battery. I put about a two hour charge on it and it fired right up. The next day it started fine so I took it out for a nice drive. It is not a daily driver, so it had been sitting for about three weeks. I ordered a battery tender and I have been using it.
The problem I have, ever since the battery went dead, every time I start the car I get Service Column Lock on the DIC. It appears when I first start the car also, the DIC indicates about 10.5-11.5 volts at startup, but then it goes to 14.4 and slowly comes down to about 13.3.
Does it sound like I have possibly a weak battery? It is a Delco 6 year, but I cannot read the date code, because it is smeared.
