my car wouldnt start a day ago, jump it and got it to the shop,
alot of corrosion was on the battery cables..
took them off, pull the battery out, poured alil of baking soda and water(or coca cola will work) on the battery prongs, sprayed it down with water to get excess corrosion off..the loaded it up in my friends trunk to take to pep boys to get tested..
before i left for that, i got some coke and let the battery cable sit inside a cup full of it to eat the corrosion off til i got back
tested my battery, it held 12 volts which is need but lil to no amps..so it couldnt start the car...BAD BATTERY
i reccomend doing this before anything my friend...
if its a new battery then its the cables... replace the cables.. if it still doesnt work its the starter..
simple as that...
hope it works
