swiftkid 1 Posted November 9, 2007 Perhaps a bit of both the battery and alternator. If you have another battery to try I would give it a go, it may be the case that the alternator has packed up and the battery isnt getting charged. you could try taking your battery out charging it and then trying it again to see what happens Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reggit 0 Posted November 12, 2007 Check your engine earth connections and also check battery and starter motor connections are clean and tight. You may have a high resistance from a bad (or corroded) connection somewhere in the starter circuit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
