My car died on me last night Everything in the car still work but it wont turn over What do you think is wrong with my car?

Did you notice the lights dimming and loss of power before it died?, if you did, it might be an alternator problem, or a loose or corroded battery terminal, or the battery itself., Check the voltage on the dash board, with the the key on, if its under 12v, the battery charge is low,remove and clean the battery terminals, give it a boost, if it starts and dies as soon as you remove the jumper cable, it´s definitely the alternator.

Why would the battery on a 2006 Ford Mustang die while driving?

The alternator is not working properly. Your car will still run off the battery for a little while then when the battery dies the car dies. Check the alternator or take it to autozone and they will check it for you.


When you change one battery in the Ford F-350 Turbo diesel do you need to change both at the same time?

It is best to replace both at the same time if you have had them for more than 3 years. If for some reason 1 dies before 3 years, it is ok to replace 1 just make sure it was a defective battery, and not a system problem. Be sure to clean the battery terminals and coat with anti corrosion before installing new batteries.
