sits for a day and won't fire!!

[Ben B.]

Gave my truck a jump yesterday to fire it up after sittin for a while.

Fired right up after jumped, ran fine etc. Shut it off and it fired right back up.

Come back today from school, go to fire it up and CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK


wtf is wrong with the thing?

bad batt. my personal recommendation is to get one of those high class electronic trickle chargers/reconditioners. I broke down and got one and have saved 3 batts with it so far. Or, you could take the quickest way out and by a new batt.

def a battery prob but also check to make sure your alt is charging properly maybe load test the whole system

 

[blazin_blazer]

check for corrosion at battery cables and at starter

or you could just drive it more...

You could also have a parasitic drain on the battery.
