Hello and welcome to JustAnswer, my name is \*\*\*\*\* \*\*\*\*\* I have over 21 years of experience in this field. I'm so sorry for your car troubles and hopefully I can help. Approximately how many miles do you have on your vehicle, and does your vehicle cranks, clicks or noting at all?

90k, it does nothing at all. The light come on , radio comes on, nothing else. It hasn't been started for a couple days because I've been out of town and it has been cold if that helps.

Just to be sure that the problem is not the battery, have you tried jump starting the car?
Still not sure what you need?
Have a certified mobile mechanic diagnose what's wrong with your car, at your home or office.
