So in my own carelessness I did it again. I left the car on overnight, or maybe I left the interior lights on. Either way, I woke up with a dead 12V battery.
I got out my jumper cables and connected to my other car. Everything came up, etc.
Now what do I do? I think I should own a medium service battery charger so I can just plug it in and bring the 12V back up, but for now, I will have to just leave it jumpered to my other car for an hour.
Assuming I didn't kill the battery, I should be able to just go drive it again, right? When driving, the car should continue to charge the 12V battery right?
What is the recommended procedure for getting back up after such an event. Did I do the right thing?
Oh, when it came back on, after jumping the battery, it shows 123 miles range. GOM reset I guess. Ha Ha
