check your battery connections
Defective ignition switch, or bad starter.
If the alternator fails, it is no longer keeping the battery charged and your engine is running on nothing but battery power. Once the battery runs down, your engine will no longer run.
Make sure the battery cables are making good contact with the battery and are clean and tight.
batteries are stored energy, nothing should have happened. They say to disconnect the negative terminal for safety reasons.
Battery is dead, because of a bad alternator.
In the 1970's we had a gas shortage and in some places there was't gas for a day. Nothing happened. In Germany they had no driving sunday's. People can adapt to these things.
Make sure that car has gas in it. Then check if the starter.
Pay the $280 ticket, get your license and drive off into the sunset like nothing ever happened.
well if you do nothing the battery will stay full a long time . and if you leave the light`s on it will be empty the next morning[i speak whit experience] it has happend to me. but the car battery of my car has not been replaced for 190.000 km[117.800miles]
If you need a battery then there is nothing that can replace it.
Low battery voltage? poor battery connections?
When you take the battery out nothing really happens. I tried it myself and it did nothing.
