my 04 won't start w/o a jump NEW
by: Chris

I installed a rear camera in the vet and it worked but it drained the battery. I undid the install but battery won't hold a charge now. I can't remember details of your problem, but do you think something is draining your battery?

Test starter relay in starter circuit. Or just replace it. About $15.

Battery Cables

Depending on where you are connecting the battery jumper cables might help you determine what battery terminal or cables are bad. The screw in posts of the battery are a very common failure point. Check the ground on the chassis also.
