hey guys

i dont know whats goin on but my evo wont start. i havent drivin it for a bit over a week and i tried to get it goin but nothing. no lights are working, the thing is completely dead. i tried to jump it but that isnt helping much.. can anyone offer some help?

thanks

 

Put a volt meter to the batt, it may be completly dead.. that means it won't hold a charge even if you jump it.


oh yea check your terminals.

 

i have a feeling that is it... any suggestions? i dont have a volt meter

 

check your fuses and listen for your fuel pump to prime......do you get a CEL when you turn the key?

It is a fuse if the CEL does not light, and the fuel pump does not prime

 

im sayin there is NO life, no cel, no sounds no clicking. dark silence.

 

not if it's totaly dead.

did you check your terminals?

 

battery

 

okay so its 99% the batter here, what can i do?

 

take your batt to autozone. i

to see if it's dead.

 

buy a new one - there is no other option.... well, other than stealing.

 

get yourself a $15 digital multimeter... once you have one you'll find all sorts of uses for it.. They read voltage, ohms, amps, bunches of useful info.

 

but stealing is bad

 

ill get a new batter. thanks guys

 

Get it jumped by another running car.

Let the other vehicle charge to your dead battery. Maybe for about 5 min.

Then have the other vehicle rev up to 2000-2500 rpms while you crank your motor.

 

i got it goin... it wouldnt work at first when i tried to jump it. but i left the other car on for a few minutes to see if i could juice it up. it ended up working.
