So I'm stuck in a car with a dead battery (send help)
a year ago
>>> I FUCKING CURSE A LOT, IT'S NOT SO MUCH A RUDE MEANING AS IT'S JUST MY NATURAL TONE OF CONVERSATION IN THE REAL <<<
Today I took my mother to a surgery in Wichita. Her car alarm kept going off so it pushed the battery to the end. And it died on me in a parking lot thankfully. But I don't have enough for a tow or new battery. -_- bills prior took everything. Now I'm stuck .... if someone wish to help with funds to get a new battery. I'd appreciate it. Anything helps.
And... you need to find out WHY the car alarm keeps going off. I suggest you disconnect the battery, when you get home.
Also, do have a way to get the old battery out? There might be a place nearby that can charge it up
Do not be surprised if it actually your alternator rather than your battery. If the car stalled when driving, it is likely to be the alternator. A car will run on the alternator if the battery is NG, just not start because the battery will not take a charge. If the alternator is NG, then the car will run on the battery until the battery is exhausted, then quit.
Good luck with this. If a shop buys either of these parts, you will pay significantly more. If you can take the alternator off, AutoZone, O'Reilly's, or Checkers will test for free
