Yesterday, all of a sudden, my Prado wouldn't start. There was no sign of life at all: no salon lights, nothing. I measured the battery voltage and it was 2.6 volts!
I was able to jump start the car to get going and made it home. When I arrived home I switched off the engine and tried to re-start it immediately, but once again there was no life.
My neighbour suggested I try to jump start it from my auxiliary battery, but I wasn't able to; probably not enough juice in it. After a while I noticed that the salon lights were on so I tried to start the engine just from my starter battery....and it started!
Do you guys think that this is a sign of a faulty battery or possibly other electrical issues?
