Common signs include slow engine cranking, dim headlights, electrical glitches, battery/charging warnings, and batteries older than 4 years.

Denver-area temperature swings and winter cold can accelerate battery wear. If your 2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty cranks slowly or shows intermittent warning lights, it’s smart to get a load test before you’re stranded. Larry H.
