My car is dead :(

Artica

Imperial Kitten
Isn't frustrating when it just dies. :(
Possibly no more battery juice, I haven't change it in about 2 years, probably is that. Well all in all is ok, cause I'm home. Called the MB guys and hope they have it ready by the end of the day. :mellow:

But it's still frustrating, working from home is such a drag. :huh:

Questions:

Does the car make noise when you turn the key?
Is there lights on when you open the door?
Does the car try to start but won't turn over?
If it is the battery have you shut lights/radio/heater/everything off before trying to start car?
Did it rain heavily wear your car was parked?
 
does it have gas?
you do know you have to put gas in it to make it go right j/k
does it make a clicking sound
does the radio still work when you turn the key

clicking sound is the starter

non radio is a dead bat.

just some simple trouble shooting tips

and sorry to hear the old buggy is DOA


I was typing that when fluf man post it how funny

I could so see Gomi on Pimp my ride.


And Artica - listen to Fluffy. And good luck. I just had my battery replaced so I know how it feels. Word of advice - if you have a car alarm I hope you have the car alarm doohickey to turn it off.

The alarm has it's own power source ;) Mercedez Benz people are smart, the car won't move but it can still scare bandits. LOL I don't get it. :mellow:
