Hi there. If you recently replaced your battery, but the vehicle won’t start unless you "bump start", it’s possible that your battery cables are damaged. Once the motor starts, power to all components is supplied by the alternator. I’d have a professional mechanic replace your battery cables or complete a car is hard to start inspection to determine why you are having this problem.
