If you hear a clicking sound when you turn your key, or it starts some of the time but not all the time, probably a starter issue. Best to take off the starter and have your local parts store test it.
Chances are the starter bearings are shot, time for a new or reman starter.

91 dodge stealth having trouble starting it will push start and alternator builds power until headlights work but if you stop the car it wont start again any ideas?
You need a new battery or it has a battery cable connection problem. The battery needs a full charge too - like driving around for an hour to charge it back up. A voltmeter is useful to read battery voltage when cranking. 12.6 volts =full charge. When cranking it may drop to 10 volts. If the starter won't turn over use the voltmeter to check for the 12 volts on the battery and then starter battery cable connection point.
What could be the problem if when you use the air conditioning in your 1988 Delta Oldsmobile the car won't start the next time?
So. How do you get it to start the next time? I say you have a poor battery or charging system, The AC fan is taking just enough to keep the battery out of full charge. fix it.
99 ford ranger won't start not even a click it is a 5 speed?
Check your battery. Most likely the culprit is a dead battery. A quick check across its terminals with a voltmeter will tell you.
Should you charge a new car battery before installing?
It depends on how long the battery has sat around from where it was purchased. Its never a bad idea to fully charge a battery before its first use. Most new batteries only have roughly an 80% charge. An alternator is not designed to full charge a battery but maintain a healthy one. By charging a new battery you ensure that your getting the most out of it by not allowing sulfation from charging and discharging to the batteries original 80 percent.
If I have power to my headlights and stereo in my 93 Honda Accord Ex but not to the dash or windows or anything else and the car won't start but I have a full charge on the battery what is the problem?
Check the ignition switch and the fusable link. Other than that, I can't think of anything without looking at it.
91 regal won't start in -2 weather battery is full charge car does nothing?
If it does nothing you have a loose or corroded battery connection. If it clicks and will not start then the starter may be frozen and or defective. I would also try jump starting it to make sure the battery is good even though it shows full charge.
Someone once said that if you charge your brand new cell or mobile phone before you turn it on or something that you will have better battery life in the future any truth in this?
You have to charge your brand new battery to FULL before using it. 24 Hours recommended. Doing this doesn't extend the battery life but if you do not charge it to full and start to use it the battery would have a shorter life span.

What is green light on MacBook?
It has to do with your battery charge. it's either charging or is at full charge.
Charge the definition of the charge of battery?
The official charge of a battery is measured by the specific gravity of the electrolyte. For a good battery and alternator, full charge is noted when the alternator output current is just enough to carry the load, plus a bit to maintain the battery, and the battery voltage is normal.
Can a dead battery show a charge on a battery charger?
Yes. Battery chargers like those used in phones and cameras do not show how much charge is in the battery, but simply show when the battery will accept no further charge. The capacity of a battery to accept a charge becomes reduced through age or other factors such as repeatedly allowing it to fully discharge. It will charge, but not to its full capacity. Thus, while the charger may show that the battery is full, there may be so little actual charge that it goes dead immediately when the device is turned on.

A car salesman had to 'charge' the battery to a brand new car in a dealership showroom for it to be taken out for a road test will driving it around the block for few minutes 'charge' the battery?
No, it takes longer than a few minutes of running to properly charge a battery that was too low to start a car. However, if the dealer properly charged the battery, for the proper length of time, you are OK. If it was a "start charge", then no. The bottom line is the electrolyte's specific gravity, a measure of charge. Of interest also is the reason why it was discharged to start with - I would ask the dealer, and I would insist on a full starting / charging system performance test.
I Have a battery charger of 1.5 charge amp at 2 amp slow charge for a motorscooter 12v battery labeled std 1.2aX510hrs how many hrs should i charge this new battery to full capacity?

Very cold day and car makes noise but won't start?
The most common reason for a car not starting, on a cold day, is the battery needs to be charged. Make sure the battery has a full charge.
