Help -Problem Starting Vette
I have am 08 C-6 that I bought a new Optima battery for before I drove my car from SoCal to West Palm Beach.
A week after the long drive I went on a road trip without the C-6 when I got back 5 days later, I cannot start my car. I had no power on the battery.
When I attempted a jump the alarm came on but I only had about 8 amps pushing through to the starter and it just kept clicking.
Do I need a new battery or is something else wrong. Have not had this problem on any of the Vettes I have owned through the years so I am at a loss.
Any advice?
