18 month old battery and my MKX won't start. Can't jump it successfully nor will it take a charge from my battery charger. Occassionally since this happened the hazard lights will flash all by themselves, lights will come on mysteriously. Key FOB buttons are not being pressed. Has the battery gone bad or do I have a problem with computer?

The cluster is run almost entirely by the body control module. There is no power wire per se. Che k to make sure you are getting power to the bcm.

    In this diagram, you can see the white/purple data wire comes from the pcm and goes thru the box you replaced on it's way to the bcm and cluster. Check that wies carefully.

SOURCE: hazard lights flash by themselves, doors won't stay locked (unlock by themselves) key fob won't work.

I has a similar problem and I just took the battery out of my remote. I think there is a problem/ short in the remote. It's as if the button is being pressed when it is not. I will use my spare one in the mean time. It was driving me crazy becuase I was driving long distance at the time and when I removed the battery it stopped. I hope this works for you!

SOURCE: battery won't hold charge, car only starts when jumped

Have you checked to see if the alternator is charging, and if there is something that is draining the battery overnight ?

The battery won’t charge when connected to 240 volts.ideas ?

The voltage in the battery is too low to “excite” the charger. The charger needs to read some sort of voltage to know it is connected to a battery and connected the right way otherwise it will not begin charging. If you have another battery and jump leads you can connect it to the flat battery to excite the charger. Once the charger commences charging you can remove the jump battery and leave the flat battery to be charged.

Why do I have to keep jump starting it?

Your battery is fine but will need to be fully recharged. It is your alternator the is going out or very close to bein out now. Replace that and you should be fine.

I have a problem with a 2008 Dodge Charger, my battery went bad and I had to jump it off to take it and get a new battery put in but now my new battery won't start my car not even when the new battery...

When you jump started the vehicle, it started as normal and you drove to a shop to have a new battery installed.?? Correct??

1. Who removed the old battery and installed the new one?

2. Did the car start normally immediately after the new battery was fitted? How frequently were you able to drive the car on the new battery before the problem you described appeared?

3. Has anything been done to the vehicle since the new battery was fitted.?

2012 VW Jetta TDI battery won't hold charge and car only clicks and won't start

You need to charge your battery up more. Either get a battery charger or leave the jumper cables hooked up for a longer period of time.
Your battery was probably completely dead. You might even need a new battery...they really don't like to be completely drained.

98 honda crv wil start if jump started and then later won't start

Your battery is not fully charged and may not be accepting a full charge. Remove your battery and put it on a charger overnight. Take the battery to a parts store and have them hook it up. They will then be able to tell if it is taking a full charge or not. If this is a new battery it will take a full charge but it is still getting drained by something such as a radio not shutting off automatically, if you have that option.

How can i charge the battery for the equinox 2007 , can i just do it regularly like with the cables and another car??

The cables are just for jump starting, you won`t be able to get a full charge that way.You will need to connect a battery charger to do it properly.If you don`t have a battery charger auto zone will charge it and test it for free if you remove it and take it to them.

Are the battery cables corroded or otherwise no making a good connection? Clean them with a cable end cleaning tool avail at any auto parts store for around $5.00 and try it again, I bet the that is the issue, also charge the battery and have it tested at Kragen, they do it for free.
