your battery is probably dead...., if when you turn the key and nothing happens at all...your battery is probably dead...
Solution: Well, it turns out it was my ignition switch. That was my first guess. Im glad i went with it.
Bad alternator and/or belt. Your battery isn't being re-charged while you run the engine, so the electrical things drain the reserve from the battery.
believe it or not you may haveblown fuse check them.
generally speaking, there are several LED lights on the battery charger, when the light is red, it meas the battery is being charged, when the light turn to green or yellow, it means the battery is full charged
Yes, the battery starts the engine, and as long as the battery is fully charged the engine will start. The battery will loose it's charge if the alternator is defective and not replenishing the charge of the battery but the alternator has nothing to do with starting the engine.
Sounds like a connection problem from the battery to the car. Easiest way to find out is to get a jump start from another car, if it works then it's the battery, if not then is either the battery cable or an alarm/immobiliser that is still armed.
battery light on 2000 f250 will blink if battery is not properly charged. an example is if you have been sitting all day with stereo olaying and engine not running, you have run battery down some. after starting engine and driving, the battery light will blink while alternator charges until battery is fully charged i have only experienced this at night when lights are on creating extra load for alternator ,after running battery down with stereo all day
could be bad cells in the battery, but my bmw ended up having a seized motor, starter was engaging and clicking because it couldnt turn the engine. try putting a socket on the engine crank pulley to see if engine will rotate
Starts the engine. Turns on lights and radio.
Starts the engine. Turns on lights and radio.
Weak battery not holding a full charge or alternator not supplying a suffient charge to the battery - check with a voltmeter A fully charged battery should read approx. 12.8 without engine running Approx. 13.8-14.2 with engine running
This isn't enough information. Does the engine "crank", in other words, can you hear the engine turn as you try to start it? If the engine doesn't crank and the lights go very dim you could have either a poor connection between the battery and the battery cable or the battery could be discharged. Batteries are only storage devices that hold electrical energy that has been put there by the alternator. IF, after checking things out, the alternator is not functioning or the battery is old enough that it no longer holds a charge you will have to replace the offending component. Don't just assume that it's the battery just because the battery is not charged. It has to be tested first, by someone who knows what's going on.== == == == This is most probably what you are refering to:Why would a car with a fully charged have dim light and be unable to start?Why_would_a_car_with_a_fully_charged_battery_have_dim_lights_and_be_unable_to_start== == == ==
The alternator when the engine is on, and the battery when the engine is off.
