My 2006 chevy trailblazer 2wd 6cyl wont start. makes clicking noise, then nothing lights/radio etc work but wont start what is it

You got a jump and it ran fine? It's your battery. The lights and radio are much easier for a battery to handle than spinning a car engine. Again, if all you needed was a jump, you have a bad battery.

I was trying to start my Jeep and all the gauges flatlined. They all returned to normal except the speedometer and tachometer which are now stuck underneath the pegs (below 0) How do I adjust them to get...

When you try and start your truck without a jump, what are the battery voltage shown on the gauge, there are times when the battery are just in too bad of a shape that even a jump wont help. Without the jumper cables monitor voltage indicator, it should not fall below 10 volts.

Good luck
