Bloomin box!!
Went to give it a run today, well it has been 3 weeks, I know I know!
Last time I drove it back from the lorry man who had jumped it in the morning as had not been using isolator like I do, so I took it home which is about 15 minutes away, took isolator off and left it till now. He had it in the workshop for 3 weeks so I expect he just jumped it each time.
Went to start it and its 'clicking', tries to sort of turn but won't. Is this the battery? Lights work on and off, so i'm thinking he nearly drained the batteries while he had it and they have not charged enough to start it, and me leaving it has killed it?! I'm not used to a 24v as only had a 6.5 tonne before. This is the first time its not started before.
Can I jump it off my mums 4x4 with heavy duty leads?
Or get a battery charger and charge? Think they must be very dead. Not sure just taking it out for a run will do. I think I am going to buy one of those 24v chargers/starters anyway as I think it would be a good idea.
Any 24v advice would be very helpful. Thanks!
