RE: 2001 LXi Battery Failure
Most definitely, but you should also just sit and watch the 12V meter in the dash when you're plugged in. You need to ensure that it's constant and not varying much, as mine was. Also watch your 12V ammeter (dash and/or upper one), as you should see it start out higher when first plugged in and slowly tapering down as the batteries reach full charge. I found mine did not taper much when the battery failed. The charger never saw a full charge, so it kept trying to charge and never quit. Then I realized that I could hear the charger working fairly hard, so now I'm always listening to the noises stuff is making. I still look at the gauges when ever I get inside, though.
