Electrical problem
1995 Hyundai Excel 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual

Hi there I have a question about my charging system. When the battery is charged my car starts fine, when I turn it off then start it soon after it starts. But when I let it sit for 5 minutes the battery looses it's charge. There is still power in the battery but not enough to crank the starter motor. Sometimes after driving the car, it starts and seems to have plenty of charge, and other times it doesn't.......Do you know what the problem might be?......

Have the alternator professionally checked if okay check for battery drain that could be discharging the battery-
