What causes a Honda Accord battery to go bad?

If the battery discharges quickly, it is bad, but that would be normal for an old battery. If your battery has a poor connection in it, it won’t discharge quickly, but will put out a steady voltage for the duration of the test. But that voltage will be lower than normal. If the battery does test good, then you may have a bad starter.

While the starter is engaged, the voltage should drop to around 9 volts. If it goes lower than this, then either the starter is bad or the battery has a poor connection internally.
