Question

How does battery sulfation develop and what diagnostic signs indicate its presence?

Answer

Sulfation occurs when lead sulfate crystals build up on battery plates, reducing capacity and causing high internal resistance.

Explain

CHEPQ battery testers detect increased resistance and reduced conductance caused by sulfation, alerting technicians to potential battery rejuvenation needs or replacement to maintain vehicle reliability.
