i sitll need a jumpstart to drive? Everytime I want to drive my car I usually need to get it jump started. Sometimes it will work for a while and then suddenly when I turn the car off it will need a jump start. A few times when I turn off my car to get gas or go into waffle house to eat or something, it wont start back up.
When I try to start it, sometimes the dashboards lights will turn on and other times they wont. Also a few times I have tried to start it and it wont start but i able to get the dashboard lights to come back on but the car still wont start and then they go off. I usually get a clicking noise but sometimes nothing at all. I get the clicking noise when the dashboard lights come one. If nothing comes on at all I just get dead silence.
I have checked for anything being on and I have not found any light switches or anything turned on. In my opinion that couldn't becuase they couldn't drain the battery that fast if i just turned my car off for a second.
I have had my battery and alternator checked at several places, they all say that it is good. I was told my starter was good as well. However, I bought the battery from wal mart about a year ago and everytime i get it checked its at autozone, wal mart, advanced auto parts.
Recently my horn stopped working, then my window wont wind up (power windows), then my cd player wont turn on.
Its a 1996 Mitsubishi galant. I have already checked the fuses on the car. Any ideas on what might be wrong as well as an estimate of how much it will cost?
