Battery Load Test Results

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 13 other vehicles, including the 2017 Audi SQ5, 2017 Audi Q5, 2016 Audi SQ5, 2016 Audi Q5, and 2015 Audi SQ5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

By placing the battery under a strong load during the Battery -A- load test, the battery voltage will be reduced.

If the Battery -A- is good, the voltage drops only to the specified minimum voltage.
If the Battery -A- is defective or weakly charged, the battery voltage will drop very quickly to below the specified minimum voltage.
After testing, this low voltage level is maintained for a lengthy period and only increases again slowly.
Only perform the test once. Repeating the test will not produce accurate results.
In order to be able to test another/additional Battery -A-, the Battery Tester with Printer VAS5097A must cool down for approximately 30 minutes for the test result to be correct.
