Dead and warm battery.
86' 911 driven yesterday and 3-4 times weekly never had this issue.
Went to move the car to the other garage and the thing was dead. Went to check the battery and just by habit touched the battery and it was warm/quite warm.
Pulled the battery and it's still warm to the touch. Was going to start charging (trickle) but wanted to come here first.
I've never had a warm battery in a car that's been sitting overnight.
Battery date is 2018.
Thought I had left the glove box open but not sure that would cause drainage after shutting the car down and not seeing any lights on in a dark garage. That's the only thing I can think of. Headlights off, no turn signal accidentally hit/left on...
I've just never had a warm battery before in all the years of driving, especially one that has been sitting overnight. I have read through a lot of threads and not finding a decent answer.
If the battery was not getting charged while driving yesterday could this be the problem? I am not sure discharging a battery would cause it to be warm to the touch...
Again, not anything I have experienced...
Any thoughts are truly appreciated...
Erik
