Hello. I bought a 2011 Peugeot 5008 eight months ago. I haven't had any battery problems since then. Without much hesitation, the battery was replaced first. In fact, the same battery has been replaced for the fourth time, every 3-4 weeks. I'm still experiencing a discharge problem with the latest battery. I start the car in the morning. After driving 2 km and turning off the ignition, it won't start a second time. I then have to jump start it. I can't figure out what's causing this. The electrician also says the battery is charged. If anyone has experienced this problem, I'd like some help resolving it.

Could there be a problem with the alternator?

Sir, there is a problem somewhere, there is a short circuit, to be honest, you need to have it looked at by a good master.

Sir, I had it replaced, but I'm still having problems. We haven't figured out why.

Sir, we changed the coal, but the problem was not solved. We couldn't understand why.

Exactly, sir. I haven't been able to figure out the source of the problem after trying. I'm looking for a good master. Thank you.

Burak, it is not difficult to find the fault. Anyone who claims to be an auto electrician should be able to find it. For example, I am not. But even I can find the leak or fault in 2 hours at most.

If only someone who claims to be an electrician had done some checking, I might not have even changed the battery. We solved the problem today. I explained my problem to an electrician. The first thing he suggested was to measure the leakage current. Upon checking, he noticed that the superheater relay was intermittently tripping. When it was tripped, he saw that it was drawing 25 amps. We replaced the relay, and the problem was solved. Finding a professional is really important.
