I jumped a car at the local costco for a couple who's battery was dead. Instead of listening to me the guy connected the negative on my car to his negative instead of the ground of his vehicle. Yesterday and today when I turn the key to start, I hear a clicking sound and nothing, do it twice and nothing, the third time it immediately starts without any trouble turning over. Never had this problem in the 5 years I've owned the car. Battery is about 3 years old from Toyota.
Any ideas? Alternator/battery/fuse? |
