Did the colonoscopy thing today (prepped yesterday and this morning). Everything went smoothly, and I probably won't need another before I'm 70. Got home and napped until almost 5 when the wife got me up for dinner.
I was famished! I hadn't eaten since Sunday afternoon.
Just as I sit down with my plate, my oldest son calls. He's at work and his 2022 Outlander won't start. It's acting like a dead/bad battery, and everyone has already left.
I put some Saran Wrap over my dinner, put it in the fridge, and head to rescue him.
Ended up calling AAA to come get it and once there, they tried to jump start it. No go. The driver then tried to use some form of voodoo (a technical term for the app that's supposed to give him the info he needs) to get the car to go into neutral without being started. Won't work. I suggested that he reconnect the jump box so there was enough voltage to complete whatever task the system was trying in order to go into neutral. He tried a different jump box and the car started...
We drove it home with no hiccups, but after parking it in the driveway, we checked the battery voltage (20 minute drive with headlights on). it read 12.16V on my meter, so we hooked up the charger to charge overnight.
He insists that nothing was left on after he parked it at work this morning, so we're still not sure what's wrong. we'll finish our troubleshooting and diagnostics tomorrow.
Finally warmed up dinner and ate at about 9PM.
