THE BATTERY IS WEAK
the jump showed that.
so why is it weak
well are are 4 ways.
1; battery is bad,called wont hold charge. (buy one)
2;left lights on, sleeping and battery now dead
charge it is action.
3: charge system dead. correct that.
charge lamp glows, means, just that, running.
test charge system for causes.
4: phantom drains, where lamps dont glow telling what is wrong, more tests. ask (ammeter tests)
is this simple sure, but not for all?
we cant guess your skills
nor cars state.
short answer and is 100% effective at all ASE shops.
get it fixed ring a bell?
if you dont have tools
there is but one answer, end of above.
or
want the blind to guess? why/?
sure, we can,,
a bad battery, why,its #1 fail item on all cars. (after sometIMEs spark plugs)
SEEMS LIKE WEAK BATTERY BUT THEN AGAIN I CAN HEAR IT.

Sounds like a charging system problem and the alternator may not be working. The gauge light will come on if the charging gauge is showing low so you will look at the gauges. Have the battery and charging system tested
Tyvm
need to get it started for charge warn lamp to work
battery bad, or charge system is dead.
try testing battery first.
it's less work and less cash.
ever just swap in a "know good" battery say off of wife?car? FREE, of cost and super easy.
if its good, test the charge system.
ask how. its not hard, $10 voltmeter from walfart, and bingo. easy
in each case
pull neg lug on battery first. and WIN
Hint1: on the road, the battery can flat line in
1/2 hour, at night.stalled, charge system DOA.
plan accordingly.
hint 2, most charge systems, will shut down
when battery has gross faults.
it does this to prevent excess voltage for burning out expensive, electronics in the car
for this key reason, we blame batteries first.
see? and does so for other faults too..
ill not list all...
sure green bat lugs.....
and not have battery explode. reason 2.
