Ok so I get up this morning and walk outside to go to the store, and my 05 Liberty that I just purchased less than 2 weeks ago won't start...... When I put the key in the ignition and turn it over, it goes click click click click, and the dash lights blink off and on... I tried to jump it off with my wifes car, but it does the same thing.. Anyone ever heard of this? |

Battery most likely died on you,try replacing it.Worst case the starter soliniod went on the starter but some of the newer KJ's seem to have battery problems. |

Exactly what it is. I tried jumping it off.. And it didnt work, so I decided to just let it sit there and charge for a second with the other car of course running... Started right up. So I drove around for a while, then came back.. Now I just went back out to try and see if its ok.. And dead again. So I am going to get a new battery. |

Yeah I am very relieved that's for sure. My wife was going crazy, thinking it was a crankshaft sensor or the starter as she looked it up on the internet. Thank goodness it was only the battery.. Just didn't think it was since all the lights/equipment worked fine, no dimming etc, and when I tried to turn it over it didn't even try and start. |

I had the same thing happen on my old Astro van the day we were going on a long trip. Went out and loaded up the van with all our stuff, get the kids and everybody loaded in and turn the key....nothing  Everybody back out and I am off to WalMart for a battery. Changed the battery ands all was good! Dang thing never,ever had a problem before that day so I just figured it was some bad karma coming back to haunt me.

Lots of dead battery reports right now (in the spring time).. I wonder what this winter will hold for more dead battery stories? |
