Hello! My first post thank goodness. I have a 95SL that has had a bad battery twice in the past 6ish or so months. Ive taken it in and its tested bad and replaced. Ironic? What I dont know is if there could be another issue that would cause this to happen or if Ive just had two bad batteries. The interior lights come on as well as the ignition buzzing when key is inserted. It just wont turn over. Clicks. Replace battery and it fires right up. Any concerns I should have? Thank you in advance.
Thanks for joining the ranks of the R 129 crowd.
Many reasons for battery running down. something is ON.
Where in the world are you? Vehicle was sent to what part of the world? When was the Benz built?
So old wiring harness could be leaking, Some system may not being turned off when the key is removed. Security/ alarm system may not be functioning properly, the list can go on and on give us some more details
