Hi,

This morning when i went to start my car all i got was a click and the dash lights flickered and dimmed a bit. It wasnt the usual try to start and the battery dies sort of start, then i tried to start it again and the wipers did one swipe. If I leave the ignition on some of the lights stay on and others flicker on and off. I think that my alternator is on its way out, would this have anything to do with it?

Any ideas would be great.

Thanks for your help.



Sounds like your battery is drained. If your alternator is on its way out, then it makes sense. Try boosting it / charging it. If your alternator is the culprit, it should at least start with the booster cables attached.
