Hi Guys,

I'm having problems with my saga blm, when I tried to start the engine, it wont ignite, instead it gave off a clicking/tak2 sound. The radio seems to be working so i guess it wasn't the battery. So i've decided to jump start the car, and 10 minutes after plugging the cables the engine still won't ignite, and the sound is still there.

Anyone here can help me out? icon_question.gif

Looks like a flat battery to me. . Enough juice to power ur ladio but not enough to power the starter. .
How u jump start ur car ?
U use other ppl's car with engine running, then connect power cable to ur own battery and start ?
Don need wait 10 min, usually instantly can start dy after connect power cable but once you start, better have a spare batt waiting for u.

yeah my mom's myvi with engine running. Cuz i had a case where last time my friend's car need to let it charge for a while to start so i thought mine was similar.

Flat battery eh? I have one spare at home but it is for a honda civic, do you think it will work? o_O

then the last last time ?
Y I am asking you may ask.
THis is because battery power will slowly be drained off when you off ur engine.
So if u din on ur engine too long, no power goes back into battery, it will slowly drained off until the point where u dont have enugh juice to star.
The last time, u only started for 5 mins, barely enough time for the alternator to caj back the battery. .
u should have at least driven the car out for a short spin. .

last last time was 3 days before the 5 min start. I did took the car for a spin though, guess it wasnt enough.. Thanks for the info.

So lets say the conclusion is as what u said, the solution would simply be a change of battery? smile.gif

but do take it to battery foreman for a check. .might just be as simple as that or might not. .

hey bro, yeah ive checked and confirmed that its battery flat problem. Apparently the cable i used was either faulty or wasnt thick enough to carry the current. Tomorrow gonna get the battery changed. Thanks again! smile.gif
