not familiar with this prob as I don't neglect my battery.
A disabled relative has an infrequently-used car (Peugeot 205, 5 years old) It has not been driven since about May. I tried to start it last week, it wouldn't, battery flat, no surprise. I got it going with jump leads and ran it for 20 minutes, turned off, batt too flat to start (no great surprise).
Yesterday I put the charger on it, load was >5A so charger cut out. I took the battery off and discovered the load was from the car (ignition off), battery seemed to have no load.
I'm assuming the battery is buggered, any comments?
