can the battery be tested from the 2 points in the bonnet? i have lpg tank in the boot which causes aggro for testing and taking out the battery? thanks in advance

11 volts ..is not enough to start it!Has to be 11.50++ ,at least!Do a search here,there a reasons why the battery may discharge!
My front white indicators came as part of the sport packet when I bought the car.

you can check the voltage from the battery, you cannot test the battery cca capacity from the engine compartment.

and 11v is plenty to start the car. ive started cars with 10v with a shorted cell.
