My Jeep was running just fine then I went to start it one day (after all the cold winter days it was 40 degrees finally)... and it just made one "click" then nothing... All the lights turn on and nothing happens... The first time it did this I jumped it and it fired up just fine then it acted like it wasnt getting enought power the next few times I tried it....

Then the next day it wouldnt start at all not even with a Jump (again all lights work)... Autozone says my battery is fine.. I replaced the connectors & Still nothing... Please help
 
starter could be frozen up. If the lights go very dim when you try turning key then its battery or connection
 
could be a bad starter solenoid or you could have a flat spot on the armature of the starter, also could be a bad cable or loose connection on the starter.
 
is it still clicking over?

if it's clicking, it's probably the alternator.

if it's not clicking, the starter.

use what you knew yesterday. since the battery will drain and need jumped again before it's all over.

edit: oh, and just for giggles, clean your batter connectors.
 
Ok idk you're exact circumstance, but when I had Best Buy install my subs and amp, they chipped a peice of the battery, so the charge wasn't enough to keep my car running or even start it sometimes. I found that out after a bunch of headaches and fixed it for $8.

It could also be your starter, which runs about $200. Or your altenator which is a little more.

Also, sometimes my key gets stuck and will turn everything on except the car itself. You have to jiggle it before it gets a connection.
 
Could be the starter. This happened to me when I lived in Wisconsin and I had to change the starter. Good luck
 
could be your starter, but sounds like a battery or connection problem.
There could be a fuse that is constantly taking power even when it is off. For example your radio could drain the power even if the jeep is off if the fuse or fuse connector is bad. Also check your distributor, could have cracked when it was cold and that could cause your jeep not to start. Or spark plugs. That is all I know, hope it helps.
