Car Trouble Pt 2
Well, it looks as if my battery wasn’t bad after-all. My car wouldn’t start today again. Even though I know nothing about cars, I think it’s a problem with the alternator. I tried to jump start the car with Will, but it wouldn’t start. I’m currently waiting for AAA to arrive to tow my car to the dealership.
This sucks.
UPDATE [11:15 PM]:
The guy from AAA came and decided to try to jump the car because it would be easier to drive the car onto the truck than to push it around manually. He looked at the battery and immediately noticed that the connections to it were really loose. He tightened both of the clamps and we were able to start the car a few times. Basically, I know nothing about cars and I didn’t do a good job of tightening the battery when I installed it because I only had needle-nosed pliers. So I drove around for about a half hour just to make sure that my car had a good charge. This is obviously much better than having no car for a few days while the dealership fixed my car. I love AAA!
