If you’ve already tried to jump start on your vehicle, but the engine won’t turn over, there is a good chance that your battery could still be the source of the problem, it could be that it requires stronger jump power source or that it’s time for a replacement. Alternatively, it could also be your alternator (vehicle’s charging system), an ignition problem, a bad fuel pump or a faulty fuse.
If your efforts to jumpstart the battery don’t go anywhere, it’s likely for one of these reasons:
- First, it may be that the terminals on your car battery need a deep cleaning.
- Your battery may simply be very old, and beyond the point at which it can be repaired—in which case, of course, it will need to be replaced.
- Finally, note that there could be another mechanical problem somewhere in the vehicle, such as blown fuses or a bad alternator.
