Default I think my Murci battery died

Can I jump it? anyone know where the terminals are without taking off the wheel? Could i have left the headlights on or do they auto shut off?

Just as somone was asking about how reliable they are this happens! go figure! I have no power at all it is as dead as a doornail

Jumping Murcis has been known to Blow Out the Circuitry of the Dash Boards.. ...and that IS ONE EXPENSIVE FIX!!!

Read the Owners Maneul...there is a certian procedure that is supposed to be followed.

Surely they wouldn't do that with owners sometimes hundreds of miles away?!? They should be working on ease of servicing BY the owner instead. Yeah RIGHT!!

Default similar problem

you can jump the patterry from the inside of the engine compartment
from the driverside there is a red cover for a terminal connet the positive their then just ground the negative.

fter the ar is on you should check if your battery is holding a charge if not replace it.

i usually just turn the main switch off after every use.

Be careful jumping your Murci. Like JR said, it has been known to wreak havoc on the instrumentation. That could be a very expensive jump start for you. How about charging the battery, than start it?

your cables are supplying enough juice try using a portable battery jumper i keep one handy in my garage.

the main switch is located in the engine bay, drivers side round knob when turned counterclokwise shuts off main power battery does not die
