Greetings,
Need a bit of help with my 92 900... Here is the situation:
- I was out of town for about 1.5 weeks, car was started once during the time I was gone.
- Got home, car started OK. No problems.
- Went for a drive and went into a store, came back out and car would not start. Figured it was the battery. Therefore, I happen to be by a Target and bought one of the portable-jump devices you plug into your lighter. Left the portable jump plugged into lighter, as directed, for 10 minutes. Afterwards, car starts up and was able to drive home.
- Immediately after shutting car off, I tried to restart but nothing. Therefore, I figured it was the battery.
- Went to Sears, bought new battery and installed. I attempted to start - nothing, no click, no turnover - just nothing.
- Lights, radio, etc. all work. Therefore, it does not seem to be the battery.
Anything specific I should check? I spayed wd40 on "-" connections to see if built up rust? Any thoughts or ideas would be helpful as I am limited for mechanics in my area.
Thanks,
Eric
