Would like to know if you need a special battery charger to charge a flat 150 battery. Reason for asking is..
My eldest son has just bought a new Twin-cab Hilux. Doing a few jobs on it on the weekend, left accessories/doors open ect, next morning, battery to flat to start.
Put charger on(not sure what type he has). Left for couple hours. When went to start it, no power windows and some other electricals a no go. Turns out, blew a major fuse in a lume thing somewhere. $140 to replace fuse.
He said he is absolutely sure he didnt cross the terminals when hooking up charger.
Dealer vague as to why it blew.
So, does any one know if there is a special sequence/charger needed for a 150.
Dont want to find out the hard way to if it happens to me.
Thanks.
