A bad starter. A loose connection @ the terminal ends-the battery cables-the starter solonoid-IF IT has Rubber covers around the battery ends corrosion from battery acid could cause it.EVEN a bad ground on the engine from the battery 2 the frame.(battery cables) The battery cable ends could be corroded and should be cleaned. The next step would be to check the starter selenoid and then the starter.
The battery power is not reaching the starter. You have other problems...
there are two connections to the positive side of the battery, one to the starter, one to the accessories. some times corrosion get in between these two pieces. To correct this, i actual bought a battery with both positive connectors, (post and screw in) i hooked the starter up to one + part and the accessories to the other +. haven't had a problem since. Hope this helps
Could be that the alternator is not charging the battery properly Check with a voltmeter A fully charged battery should read around 12.8 without engine running With engine running voltage should read around 13.8-14.2 The most likely cause is a broken alternator drive belt
Yes, battery acid is very corrosive and will damage any metal parts.
your fuel pump is a good place to look if its worn it will cause this type of problem
Batteries don't "click," but other parts do. If you're hearing that "click," it's probably the starter solenoid trying to engage. Either the battery's charge is low, the starter solenoid has failed, or the starter motor itself has failed. On some older cars, especially Fords, the "click" could also be a remote starter relay.
Have you ever wondered how you can benefit from a AAA battery charger? Make sure that the batteries you are trying to charge in it are actually rechargeable. Other batteries can cause a fire risk because they are not designed to be placed into a battery charger. Look at the side of the battery to find out if it can be recharged.
try checking the battery cables
no it doesn't Corrosion on the top of a car battery can allow electrical flow from one post to the other which will drain the battery.
Yes, a dead cell in the battery or something is on drawing power from the battery.

no , only the concrete and other cemented floors ....
yes...as long as the cold cranking amps and voltage are at least that of the battery you took out of the car you are trying to replace the battery to.
Not really. If it is done correctly and you have your engine running at the time it probably won't hurt your battery. Do be careful though not to try to jump something that requires more than your battery can put out. For instance a battery for a 4 cylinder trying to jump a large V-8 may cause the smaller battery to overheat. Check the top of the battery for the cold cranking amp rating (CCA) and if you are within 50 cca you should be OKAY.
Well actually there is only one battery to find. The other has already been put in the box. But the battery you must look for is behind the bed. Many people have a hard time getting to this area, but it is possible. You must click in a certain area.
Low voltage from the battery, can be caused by a faulty battery or an alternator that isn't functioning properly. Bad starter Corroded battery connections or other electrical connections.
better to jump a small battery with a big one. The other way (trying to jump BIG battery with a small one) may result in smaller battery being too weak to do the job or damage to the small battery. The scenario as you have described it is OK.
