mikester303012 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I just bought a ford ka 2004 from a friend who told me about a battery issue. The battery charges the car at 19 volts. What is the problem and how can i fix it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omendata Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Alternator voltage regulator or open connection between battery and alternator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboy Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 get it checked properly as omendata said it sounds like alt or regulator. dont let ileave it too long as you may ruin the battery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Charging at 19v will boil the battery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
