2001 LXi Battery Failure

[Arcticdude]

Urnie,

I think you're doing the right thing. I would start looking at the chargers to ensure they're not cooking the batteries. I've had a charger fail in such a way that when both chargers were on, one would sometimes start putting out 16V. I just happened to catch it doing it one time and shut it down. Now I just use one charger, even though I've replaced that unit. Mine stays plugged in unless I'm driving it, just like yours (and probably most everybody else's). I've had 1 start battery fail and replaced the other 2 for piece of mind about 5 or 6 years ago. Those were about 5 years old at the time. And those batteries were the set that took on the 16V charging and they survived.
