1994 Jeep GC Won't Start	Sign In

1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee, V8, 160K miles.

Hello, I have had my Jeep in the garage for about a month (I used it all winter) and now when I go to start it I can't get it to run. There is definitely battery power because all the lights come on and when I try to start it the car alarm goes off (minus the horn sounding). When I turn the key there is a repetetive clicking noise, and than the headlights and security message start flashing until I deactivate the alarm.

Thanks for your help!
-Pete

Your battery is dead. It will probably start with a"jump start" but you need to have the battery tested.

THANK YOU! Problem solved, got the car jumped and it started fine, taking it down to Napa later to get the battery itself tested.

Thanks for the help
