Batteries that no longer possess the capability to hold a charge are ones that need to be completely replaced with a new battery. Basically, batteries die because nothing lasts forever. As the battery is used, those plates will eventually break down from use, they also develop a discharge which will reside within the battery corroding it faster. The reason batteries are able to recharge is due to plates that both discharge the power as well as receive the new power within the cells in a battery.
The main difference between a battery that just needs a jump and a battery that is fully dead is the battery’s capability to hold power within it. It is important to note the difference between a non-charged battery and a battery that is fully dead. It is important to note that it is common for a battery to fail because it has prematurely emptied, but eventually, like everything, a battery will meet the end of its useful life. When this occurs you are able to restart the battery with a jump and let the alternator refill the battery with power once again. There is a risk that whatever electrical source that is pulling for the battery store will pull too much of the stored energy from the battery and it will no longer be able to start the engine effectively. The lights and other purely electrical features of your ATV still work because the battery has stored energy that the alternator had filled it with during your last ride. One of the most common is that you have left on your lights or something else that is pulling power from the battery while your ATV is powered off. there are several reasons that the battery may not be able to start your ATV that you need to be prepared for. The mechanics of the battery are pretty simple and in theory the battery should always be able to start your ATV. It is this process that allows ATV batteries, like those in cars and trucks, to last years rather than days or even weeks. While the engine is going, the alternator is being powered, which is refilling the battery as it empties. The ATV uses this stored energy to start the engine and continue powering it during use. When your ATV is turned off, the battery has an amount of usable energy stored within it. This is accomplished by the alternator within the engine. Within the ATV, the battery is and integral part of the engine and without it, your ATV will not start.īatteries of all kinds basically work the same, but motor vehicle batteries, like ATV batteries, are somewhat different than those used in a flashlight because they dispense power, but also simultaneously being refilled with new power to be used. Batteries, of all kinds, hold charges of positive and negative charges that work together to provide the power. First, a battery powers the electrical system and helps power the motor on your ATV. Starting out with the basics will give you a lot of insight into what is happening with your battery. There are, however, some key differences and warnings you definitely want to know that I will address below, as well as an alternative method to jump starting for where you don’t have a source to jump from. Jump starting an ATV is very similar to jump starting a car, only you usually want to jump an ATV battery from another ATV battery. Fear not though, even though you may have a dead battery, you aren’t necessarily stuck with it. Personally, I am most guilty of leaving the lights on after I have parked my ATV for the day. An ATV battery will most often die if anything that uses the electrical system is left on while the motor is not running. A dead battery happens pretty similarly in and ATV as it does in larger vehicle. Usually it is in our car, truck, van or SUV, but just because you do not use your ATV as frequently as your bigger vehicles does not make them exempt from this unfortunate incident. This happens to the best of us all the time. Even though you may spend a lot of time and attention taking care of your ATV, you may still experience a dead battery from time to time.
