Batteries that have been left in an uncharged state will sulfate the plates and render them useless. Only by removal of the sulfate will they be useful again. This is a
very expensive process only accomplished commercially.
Replace battery and keep it fully charged to prevent sulfation. This can be done using a battery maintainer not
to be confused with a trickle charger. Maintainer only charges battery when needed not all the time like a trickle
charger. A trickle charger will also cause a battery to become dry which also damages the cells.
SOURCE: Replaced battery, started 5 - 6 times, new battery ded.
Nope, but they are usually near the battery, solenoid or starter (where main service wires are)
SOURCE: New battery & still won't start. Won't even make a noise. DEAD!
sounds like you have a problem with either the ignition switch itself or the solenoid on the starter if you jump positive power to the small wire on your starter and it turns the starter then it would be your ignition switch if it does not turn it replace your starter
SOURCE: 2001 Avalon was dead (battery). Won't start or jump
Assuming the motor is not frozen, you are probably not getting 12 V *at the starter motor* while cranking.
Also, try charging the battery; a dead battery may draw so much power from the jump that there still is not enough left for the starter - specially if you are using marshmallow $5.00 jumper cables.
Check it out and correct the problem (Bad ground?).
If this is a manual transmission, you can check tha the motor is not frozen by putting it in 3rd gera and rocking it to see if the motor turns. Remember to put it back in neutral befor you play some more with the starter motor
SOURCE: battery keep going dead, has new battery
Have you checked to see if the alternator is charging ? Run a volt meter on the battery with the engine running, have to have more than 14 volts. If 13 or less, then replace the alt.
SOURCE: 2001 Corvette would not start, wouldn't even turn
From your symptoms, you are probably experiencing a bad starter relay, or bad starter. These are often intermittent problems, but can both cause it to act this way. The remote has nothing to do with it. I would start with the relay, and if not the relay, it's likely the solenoid portion of the starter. If it's the starter solenoid, then you may be able to take it apart and replace the contacts in it, which is usually where they go bad.
