Maybe the alternator hasn't juiced it all of the way up. I'd give it a little more time, personally.

 

But he was able to start once he unplugged the fridge, and he drove 33 miles in to work so that should've been enough time for the alternator to recharge. No telling on that one, that's new to me, in a Charger, that is. My Dad's got a portable fridge in his Durango but it was built with that in mind (came with it).

I can't even speculate, keep us posted man.

 

Just because he could start up doesn't mean he has 14.4 volts or whatever it is while running. It took me about 45 minutes to charger a battery from dead with a resistor coming off of another 12v power source.

 

Go to Autozone, or someone that will pull the code for free, and have them pull a code from it. You will have a starting point.

Also, if the problem is not there for so many starts/stop cycles the CEL will turn off (it took mine 3 starts/stops).

 

Turn the ignition key to ACC-ON-ACC-ON-ACC-ON (3 times acc-on) and then the dash display will show you the codes ...

Then let us know what they are, or search in Google for "DTC _ _ _ _" <<<< insert code there

 

Oh, check engine light. I need my eyes checked. everyone->:slap:<-me / I guess I was assuming the battery light.

 

alright so i pulled the code by turning the key 3 times... thanks for the tip... and it came up as P0562 System Voltage Low...
the website i got the info from said its error codes from 2002-2008
and i drive a 09... im sure the codes is the same.. i hope lol
anymore suggestions on what i should do now??
heres the website 2

Well, that code would come up when the battery is low or the alt isn't charging properly ... you may wanna reset it with the Predator if you have one, or if not, disconnect the battery for a couple minutes ... but when you re-connect it, don't forget the reconnect procedure :

 

thanks a lot for the help... ill try that when i get home and keep u posted

 

alright fellas i just went and started my car during my lunch from work and the check engine light is gone lol... so im back to being a happy camper... thank you for all the help! there is no owning a dodge charger without being a member of this site! u guys are the best!
