Living in Wisconsin I generally garage my 2003 Bird during winter. I start it and run it in the driveway to keep the battery charged. Over the 22 years I’ve owned the car, the battery has completely drained a couple of winters. Both times, I used a smart charger to resurrect power but both times I had to disconnect the battery terminal from both positive and negative cables before the charger did its thing. This year I want to connect a trickle charger for the winter but I’m afraid the charge won’t take unless I disconnect the leads. What might I be doing wrong?
