Dead Battery elect Ray, a quick check says that your Encore takes a 650 CCA battery, so the way to test the battery is to start with a fully charged battery and put a steady load of 325 amps on the battery for 15 seconds and take a voltage reading while still under load just before ending the test. At that time the voltage under load should be more than 10 - 10.5 volts depending on ambient temperature. Was that how you tested the battery? If not, how did you test it? |

Time delay or contactor bad? If you energize the contactor coil directly from the 24V source using a jumper, you will know if the contactor is good or bad. If the contactor works and the compressor starts, and if the only thing presently between the 24V source and the contactor coil is the time delay, then the time delay is bad. Don't let the compressor run too long without cooling air from the condenser's fan. A minute is OK. |

Hot water coming from cold water faucet This question is similar to: My kitchen sink only dispenses hot water!. If you believe it’s different, please edit the question, make it clear how it’s different and/or how the answers on that question are not helpful for your problem. |

Car stalls when coming to a stop except when in neutral @eews Nothing about this problem is "normal" but certainly it is possible for a lockup torque converter to remain locked sometimes causing a stall when you stop and to work normally at other times. |

Intermittent battery warning issue @JordanRieger No, the battery warning light is not a remembered condition; it's the condition right now. It's an indication that current is flowing from the battery (discharging) rather than into it (charging), or whenever the alternator's output voltage is lower than the battery's voltage at that instant. If the serp belt is glazed or contaminated with oil and/or the belt tensioner is worn out, it slips, preventing full output voltage and the light will come on. Friction from slippage can heat up the belt and make it stickier so in time the alternator spins faster and the light goes off. |

Intermittent battery warning issue Can you cause the symptoms (light, ding, reset, etc.) by monkeying around with the ignition switch? Turn it slightly this way and that while the engine is running; force it up, down, in, out, and generally abuse it to try to create these symptoms. Nothing should happen at all when you do this, so if you can create the symptoms just once, that would suggest a worn out ignition switch. |

Repair rusted-out tailgate post Yes. When done correctly, just barely into the plastic range, a nut and bolt combination with no lockwasher or other locking method will not loosen and will take a slight permanent stretch, and it can be disassembled and re-torqued a limited number of times, stretching slightly more each time. These can be on assemblies that are rarely or never disassembled. Fasteners that are torqued well into the plastic range, such as "torque to X Nm plus Y degrees" are used only once, as they may snap the second time you do this. |
