Running car without battery cover
« on: July 04, 2014, 10:37:34 pm »
Had to jump start my car on Monday for its mot as it's been parked up for ages. Have no idea where I left the battery cover...

Is there any problems that could occour running without the cover such as dampness getting to the terminals

Quite a few cars come with no battery cover so it should be ok without the cover on.
