I disagree -- I had my car definitely NOT start after having the lose belt, because the battery didn't have enough juice in it.

Move south, its warmer there. Red Batt light indicates a faulty charging system, probably a voltage regulator. You say the car hasn't been started yet, so LT's 1 & 2 don't apply, I'd guess you have a voltage leak through the voltage regulator. Glow system is voltage dependent - if the car won't turn over, you don't have enough volts. The leak through the reg is probably causing your battery to charge very little, and probably damaging the alternator. good luck Mike On 12/5/06, MICHAEL ESH <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I just went out to start my 1981 300sd and the battery was stone cold > dead.
