Seems you may have more than one problem. A few questions you must answer first. If you have to jump it to start it,then your battery is dead are you have a draw draining the battery. Now if it dies right away look at your security light and see if it is on. Probably your security system is thinking someone stole the battery and shuts the fuel system down. Change the battery and Google the reset security system on 1997 Olds Achieva and you probably be set to go
Get your battery tested, if your battery has failed internally sometimes jump starting doesn't help as the battery is pulling all the current away from your starter.
I recommend using the slow (2amp) charge whenever possible. The slower the charge (in general) the better the results) I will recommend that when you are charging the battery, you remove it from the car or at least remove the cables so there is no drain on it. By removing it all together, you eliminate the possibility of damaging it (your car) from charging a damaged battery and all the nasty little things that can happen! I come from old school and although I have heard conflicting stories since, I always place the battery on a couple pieces of wood to keep it up off the ground and to avoid any damage that leaking acid can cause. Always wear rubber gloves and keep the battery away from your skin or anything else you don't want to damage. always wash thoroughly! Please let me know how you made out or if you have more questions. Thanks and good luck!
the easiest way might be to use a set of jump start leads & connect them to the new battery, then to the battery leads of the old battery before you disconnect them from the old battery,then remove the old battery & fit the new one being careful not to dislodge the jump leads then put the battery leads on the new battery.....hope this helps......cheers.
Dear kimbroberg2 My husband and I did the exact same thing for our grandson when he was 8 months old. We pulled the car out of the attic last night and the battery did not work. My husband called the manufacturer customer service at 714-256-9888. He was told that the batter was too old and would have to purchase a new one. My husband called around for the item description that they suggested and found a comparable battery at Interstate Battery in our hometown. Good luck. I know we were very disappointed when this happened, but there is hope. Hope this helps.
Unfortunately these rechargeable razors are not designed to be easily serviced by the home user.
Changing the battery will definitely involve a bit of searching for the multiple screws which hold the case together and then disassembling the case to access the battery compartment. Just watch out for any screws which may be hiding under the rubber padding pieces. You will then likely be required to desolder the old battery out and then resolder your new battery back into place.
Here is a link to a site which describes the various methods for disassembling battery powered shavers:

Hello. The correct way to remove and replace the battery would be to unscrew the end cap all the way. The Battery will then fall away allowing for a new battery insertion. The "plate" is not suppose to be removed (according to Gerber Blades). Hope this helps.
I had the same problem with my '05 Stratus SXT 2.4 DOHC. I've replaced the cam pos sensor and it seems to be running fine right now. On the Dodge forums a lot of the guys say that you need to replace the crank pos sensor too. I've bought one of those just in case it comes back again. Hope this helps.
