I have a Jeep Wrangler that won't start.?

Question

I stopped in at a gas station my jeep was running and it did start up although, lately it has starts a little slow like, but always starts after a couple times of turning the key. This time it when I turned the key nothing happened and it just wouldn't even try to turn over. The battery was working on about half power, I did try to jump it but it wouldn't jump. I tried to push started it but it didn't work, although I don't know if that was because I was pushing and my girlfiend was trying to pop start it. It couldn't be the oil could it since the car won't even start to turn over. If I let it sit for a minute it might click once when I try to start but barley. I have it sitting in a gas station over night what should i do. Also I have little money.

I tried the jump start, it didn't work

If it was a faulty battery couldn't I jump start it?

Answer 1

Get someone with "good jumper cables", give you a JUMP start. Connect the cables and let the battery charge off the other car for a few minutes. Most of these cheapo cables are crap.
After it is started drive to your local auto-parts store and have them check the battery and charging system.

Clean the battery connections.......!

Make a cardboard sign that reads, PLEASE HELP I NEED A JUMP START.

People with jumper cables in their trunk drive through gas stations every 10 minutes.

It sounds to me like the starter died which can actually be a bit pricey. Your best bet is to take it into the mechanic and hope they can find a rebuilt starter! Good Luck!

Answer 3

Faulty starter, alternator or battery.
