I bought my 2012 Honda CRV brand new. The first six years it had five batteries. I finally read a thread on this website where a guy said he replaced his AC relay. I insisted on my mechanic pulling in replacing it with a brand new one 2 1/2 years ago and I’ve not had a dead battery or had to be jumpstarted or any battery issue sense.Hi. I went to go to the store this morning, and my 2018 CR-V, recently serviced--oil change, battery check, etc. and all was perfect--and it is COMPLETELY DEAD. No lights, sounds, nothing. I used my battery charger to check the battery and it was at 95%. Fobs do nothing, but the fob light is working. No locks, lights, nothing. What is going on?!?! It's like an EMP was set off inside of the car. Help...
Yes, that sticking relay did cause a serious parasitic drain.I bought my 2012 Honda CRV brand new. The first six years it had five batteries.

Hi recently traveled 1000 miles from home in my 2018 CRV EX. Stopped at a food store, came out and battery was dead. No warning light. Got AAA and a new battery installed since I was traveling in rural areas. My question is should I get a battery charger? I am mechanically challenged but am out of gps calling range so can’t always call for help. If a charger is a good plan any suggestions on brand/type? Made me sick to replace a 2 year old battery and getting car checked out in a couple of days. Thank you.Hi.

I recently bought the NOCO Genius5 based on recommendations I read here. I've been connecting it to my V every couple weeks because I am just not driving it very much.Hi recently traveled 1000 miles from home in my 2018 CRV EX.
