u may wanna check the fuse for the ciggie port.

btw, my voltage stabilizer can go out at bulk purchase of RM180.00 for three units. Anyone ups?
Doubles up as a VS and tested by Danny (thanks!)

or maybe its as simply as your battery can no longer hold charge.
You should try recharging/reconditioning the battery.

do you have a pic of the LED tester?

5-6 months go for a round of recharging / desulfating, that way the battery will lat much longer in future. charge every 3-6months once, you'll double the life of the battery

yes, or you can charge it without taking off the car. that is if you know that the charger wont be stolen.
As for the LED, its hard to say as some led measures voltage,some measures amps, etc.

i do have charging services. You can have my charger for RM30/night.

Keep in mind that my charger not only charges, but reconditions your battery aka desulfate your battery.

lol at jerry's comment

UGPM

did you let the alternator rcharge the battery before you switch the engine off? eg. off all aircond, ICE before engine switched off

sounds like your battery is getting weak and is unable to hold anymore charge.

your VS will not tell you when your battery is weak, it'll only tell you when your battery is dead lol.

you will need one of this,
http://www.cteknz.co.nz/CTEKComfortIndicat...98/Default.aspx

which will tell you when your battery is time to chage/weak (red light), not when your battery is dead lol

if u dont take care, it dies fast.

where u stay?

say if u stay in ss2 n ure interested to rent the charger i dont mind helping u take the battery off and charging it in ur house. That's all about it.
you return it to me one day later. i'll leave the spanner with you to fit it on again

up to you, drop me an sms for pricing

that's a mitsu engine coz it has two fan belts.

Well, how do they recon an engine head? I'd say that the current head cracked after sending for water test at machine shop.

As for the workmanship, thats too cheap if the piston rings are replaced.

Did the mech take the whole engine down, or just took off the head?

The mec did a right thing by checking and replacing all parts esp the rubber hoses as most mech tend to leave them out.... but did he get your permission on replacing the lower arms, brake pads, and other undercarriage bushes?

Added on October 5, 2010, 10:22 pmthe shop did make some money on the parts judging by the price of the spark plugs.

Overall, looking on what has been changed, you are not likely to face anymore problems and should have a super smooth undercarriage especially when you go over speed bumps .

Added on October 5, 2010, 10:22 pmthe mechanic would ask you to go back to him after 500 or 1000km for an oil change. If he didnt ask you to do so, then keep in mind that the conrod bearings and piston rings were never replaced

Added on October 5, 2010, 10:23 pmall in all, you were never chopped, unless you never gave the green light on repairing the undercarriage
