Battery died while parked 1995 Grand Cherokee Laredo

When you say reading 6 is that 6 volts?

If the battery is old(2 to 2/12 years) the battery is sulfated and worn out inside. Going dead is just the nail in the coffin. Plus, a discharged battery will freeze in cold weather, allowing the ice inside to bend and break the lead plates inside, causing shorts to occur and will drain the battery after charging. If it were me, I would bring the battery somewhere warm for 8 hours, slow charge it, then have it tested. If it's more than 2 1/2 years old, I would just replace it.

Clean battery terminal connections (most likely a battery post corrosion problem on a 12 year old vehicle), and check the condition of your charging system (alternator and regulator).

Did you test the battery?
How old is it?

Try jumping the starter at the solenoid

May just be the solenoid

Did u try unlocking the passenger door with the key?these are very common for the drivers switch goin bad

Get a hammer and punch. Tap on punch next to key while turning key. This will free up frozen tumblers in ignition

you may need to replace the battery and put some STP gas Treatment in it and check the timing and the crank sensor give these websites a try www.alldatadiy.com and www.autozone.com if all fails stop by your local library and get your hands on a Haynes auto repair manual for your Jeep wish you the best of luck Michigan Man.

have someone else check your alternator with a voltmeter positive probe to the battery pole on backside of alternator. ground probe to a good engine ground. while running you should see at least 12.35 volts.any less it is bad

Does the vehicle crank for extended period of time upon first starting? If so the fuel pump needs replacing.

I have a 95 Grand Cherokee, its got this built-in 'kill switch' (lol) that i had to figure out - the alarm wouldn't stop going off until i put the key in the driver door, then turned it Right-Left-Right...

Your probably already aware of this nuisance, but i thought i'd post it it just in case.
