Help - car will not start
Anyway to tell if it is the starter or the battery? When I turn the key on I get my normal 13.7 volts and lights and radio. As soon as I turn over the key the power goes dead and the starter clicks. I am leaning towards battery, they just don't last here in Florida.
Is there a way to diagnos the problem for sure?

Hey John, try jump starting your car with another to see if it will start. If it does the battery could be bad. With the car running lift the battery cable off and if the car dies then the alternator could be bad. Good luck............Wayne
