Hey im new here just wanting to try find out why my car is being not normal
ok in the last month my car has been playing up. i can start and stop the car a number of times at home b4 the battery gets flat but when you take it for a drive like to a petrol station you fill up then go to start it and it seems like the battery is flat so then you have to get someone to jump start you witch is annoying.

but it did the same thing at home today so i just left it and went in side for a while to find my multimeter i came back out and tested the battery and it was at 100% so i tried to start is and it worked it seems to only do it when the motor warms up

what would it be ? would it have something to do with the starter motor ? i wanna re wire it all what wire should i use and wire can i get a roll of it?

I have no knowledge on this type of stuff but could it be a blown fuse somewhere?

If it's not turning, it's not the CAS. Sounds like a starter motor issue...Have you checked the connections on the starter to see if they're loose?
