Some days just shouldn't happen. Sounds like the battery / connection / cables are bad BillR

It would click once, but not start. I think it's the starter. It could also be the battery cable. These cars have a problem with a spacer in the cable that corrodes. I was dressed in my suit because I had to meet a client for her deposition this morning. So, I had to get my wife out to help me try to start it while whacking the starter with a hammer while laying on the drive in my suit and tie. And of course, it didn't work. So, we had to push it out of the way, in order to get my wife's car out of the garage, so I could drive it. Crazy morning. I am rushing to my office and my client is trying to reach me, I am driving too fast and trying to answer my cell phone, I ran a red light by mistake (luckily no one around) and when I finally get to work, my client is calling because they cannot come to the deposition because the Joint Commission on Accredidation of Hospitals is there for their SURPRISE inspection. It is once every three years and it was today without any notice. What a morning. Donald H.
