2010 Chevy Silverado wouldn't start after a night of freezing temps. Tried starting it with a portable charger. Negative side touched something and now it won't do anything. What should I do?

Checked fuse. Fuse ok. Don' know what try next.

Did you check battery voltage or starter relay?..

    Turns out there is a fuse on the positive terminal on the battery that was blown. Changed fuse, charged battery and it started right up.

hello

you will have to go into the big black box under the hood where the fuses are and check the start relay(read box for location) swap with another one just to see if the motor will turn over. if so replace with new one. good luck

1988 lxi honda accord battery drains overnight

Just a couple problems I've had. dome light left on due to faulty door open switch, spot light charger or equipment left plugged or wired to battery, lately I thought I had a bad battery but I just need to clean the terminal connections. One more thing if your car is running you can pull the negative cable off the battery. If the car dies your alternator could be the problem. If you have a light in the trunk or under the hood you could pull the bulb out to make sure you don't have a faulty switch turning them on. These are kind of simple and that is the way I start out.

1998 chevy Monte Carlo z34 3.8L My car turns over but won't start up, been having a anti freeze leak problem I think coming from water pump or intake manifold. The other night I drove without warming...

You would need to cover the basics first - does it have spark to the plugs and normal fuel pressure at the injectors ?
Low fuel pressure could cause the code, as well as a vac leak.
There could be a problem with the coolant temp sensor telling the computer the temp is warmer than it really is.
Can you spray carb cleaner into the throttle body and make the engine want to start ?

Battery was completely dead ? after how long , over night , or just out of the blue ? These year GM vehicle's 03 to 06 have instrument cluster problems , draining the battery .
