Battery Testing Section

BATTERY TESTING SECTION

The following section gives a detailed description of how to accurately diagnose a battery condition.
The first page is a battery report form which must be used in conjunction with the test pages. Mandatory fields on the report form are shaded and they must be filled in. Likewise we actively encourage all other fields to be filled in with as much information and detail as possible.

To accurately determine the battery condition, you MUST carry out battery testing as indicated on the battery report. Following the tests in the order shown on the report form will encourage a logical and methodical approach to accurately diagnosing battery faults, failure to follow this routine rigorously and the result will be incorrectly diagnosed battery conditions. We actively encourage the use of a midtronics tester however for dealers that are still without one of these then specific gravity testing and high rate discharge testing should be carried out as an alternative.
