[knowtion]

I suspect that from leaving my door open a crack that it drained the battery completely, I dunno how old the battery is but it looks aged.

the car won't boost, the dash lights don't even turn on when trying to boost

I put in a brand new battery (it is from another vehicle and is not the same size but it should at least start it i would think!)
and it still doesnt even light up anything, it's as if the power is cut off completely except for a faint electronic noise when I try to start it.

I know that when the transmission is in gear or reverse that you can't start it, could it be that there is some switch in the tranny that is engauged while it's in park? Maybe i should put it out of Park and back to see if it free's something up I haven't tried that yet.


I also tried starting another car with my SVX battery and it's DEAD!


So I think I need a battery but i'm rather concerned, why wouldn't she boost?
