wont start

heres the problem, on saturday i jump started my caprice after not startin the car for over a month and i drove it that sun and mon mornin with no problem. Monday evening when the temp dropped to like the 20's the car wouldnt start, all i kept doin when i turned the key was click. I had some one give me a jump but that didnt work, then after i got tired of tryin to jump it i decided to give it one more try with out the jumper cable and it started right up. Yesterday mornin i go to start it and it keeps doin the same thing and all i here is this click, even when i try to jump it. The battery thats on there now is an interstate batt thats almost 6 yrs old, i was thinkin it has somethin to do with the cold and the battery but not too sure and besides i want to at least want to start the car and take it to autozone so i can have the batt. tested and be sure.

I also check the wires to and from the batt and alt. and to and from the batt. and starter and they appear to be fine. Im

is the battery pretty old? if so it could be a bad battery. thats what it sounds like.

the batt. is almost 6 years old according the the manufacture date

the batt. is almost 6 years old according the the manufacture date

time for a new battery

Agreed, chuck the battery. I toss them after 4 years regardless even if it still works fine.

Give your battery connections a good wire brushing. Cars that sit around tend to collect moisture under the battery connections and you wind up with a layer of corrosion that contributes to a no-start condition.
