Exclamation My Car Wont Start

When I try to turn on my car it makes a clicking noise for a few seconds then it stops. It wont start. I tried to jump it but the same thing happens. The stereo and doors work fine, it's just that it wont start, any ideas on what I can do other than taking it to the dealer?

next time, turn off the radio. sometimes the power you save with the radio off is just enough to get it started.

I think that's how he drained his battery... by having the radio on in ACC mode too long or something...

Or he can just have the dealership take a look at it, so his FACTORY WARRANTY will fix whatever is wrong.

I had the stereo on for too long the night before but it turned on to move it and then again in the morning but it was on for less time. I really didn't think it was on for that long but I guess thats what happens when you have two 12 inch Kickers in the trunk:grin:

I tried that but it still wouldn't start.

Yup.

All is good now. So when ever you guys hear that clicking noise you'll know your battery is drained. I thought it was something worse...
