Not true. You can’t charge car batteries with “liquid” flashlight batteries. Not anymore. That change came to pass weeks or months ago.
[quote=“Nibelung44, post:16358, topic:42”]Yes, some cars can’t start because of a faulty immobiliser, the text says the proper key is needed, but said key is probably lost in the apocalypse… Is there a way to bypass that?
As for liquid batteries, I mean batteries from errr flashlight … if not where can I find smth to load up the car’s battery?[/quote]
“Faulty immobiliser” sounds like a faulty engine, and faulty engines are repaired with the “mend” command in vehicle examination view. Such repairs need particular non-craftable spare parts, while some spare parts can be crafted. These engine parts are found in garages.
If it is indeed about the security system, then you can either remove it or smash it. Removal requires skills and smashing is unreliable as it’s likely going to destroy other parts in the same tile - parts which your skills might not be able to repair or replace even if you have spares. You could also remove the other parts and THEN try to smash the security system, but, like I said, check required skills first.
If your vehicle battery is empty, then you’re going to need some tools. Here are some common options:
- take a battery from another vehicle
- use jumper cables (with another vehicle)
- install solar panels and wait for the sun
