Symptoms of Bad Ground Strap in Your Porsche 928
2
Generally, the ground strap is a heavy black
wire which connects to the Porsche 928 batterys
negative terminal.
3
The ground strap is the most important over the
entire car's electrical system as all the
electricity that flows throughout your vehicle
goes through the ground strap.
4
When you were to have a bad ground strap in your
Porsche, then you will experience all kinds of
electrical problems.
5
The symptoms might start out being minor, but
they could progressively get worse if you dont
do anything about the ground strap.
6
Let us discuss some of the important symptoms of
having a bad ground strap in your Porsche 928.
7
Low voltage
8
When you start feeling that the electricity in
your car is not as powerful as it used to be and
you cannot even conduct a voltage test on your
battery.
9
The simplest way to check for a bad ground strap
is to run a continuity test between the battery
and the chassis.
10
Flickering lights
11
If your ground strap is worn out, then the
electrical circuit will start to receive
resistance while trying to deliver power to the
headlights in front of your car.
12
As a result, you can notice the headlights either
flickering or dimming on a regular basis while
driving the car at night.
13
Dead battery
14
If the ground strap is in very bad condition and
is unable to deliver a charge to the battery,
then you can expect the battery to die very
quickly.
15
The charging system of the battery depends on the
ground strap. If the strap is bad, then the
battery cannot be charged.
16
Car wont start
17
This is one of the more obvious signs of a bad
ground but it can also be the result of a loose
battery cable or a dead battery.
18
When the ground strap is bad and you attempt to
start your vehicle, you will probably hear a lot
of tapping sounds.
19
Remember
20
The easiest way to confirm that your ground strap
is in bad shape is to visually inspect it
yourself.
21
When the ground strap appears to be damaged or
worn out just by looking at it, then it is safe
to assume that it has gone bad.
22
It is never a wise decision to wait until the
above symptoms happen. It is very much essential
to take any electrical problems seriously when
they occur in your car.
