Last year, battery charged and wouldnt start. This year took battery to auto store and they charged overnight. Put battery in car still wont start, nothing ,zip. Turn key on and have normal buzz sound but still nothing, power windows, flipup headlights flashers do nothing. Flashers have a clicking sound. This happened last year also, jumped car and would run but once I turn off everything dead again. The auto store says battery is fully charged. Any help out there?

You need to have the battery tested and likely replaced.

If it just sat without a maintainer on it for two years it might charge to show acceptable voltage but no amp power. Car batteries can't just sit. New ones get tossed if unsold within a year, T JohnL Novice May 10, 2013, 4:02 PM Post #4 of 5 (3950 views) Re: 1993 Mazda miata wont start Sign In Battery was charged and tested HT User May 10, 2013, 4:05 PM Post #5 of 5 (3947 views) Re: 1993 Mazda miata wont start Sign In If the car requires a jump to start, then you still have a battery problem with the battery itself or the cable connections.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
