Battery problems?

Feb, 15, 2009

Last weekend I was washing my Smart Car, listening the my Ipod during the process. I started the car periodically to charge the battery while cleaning the car. Eveything was fine. I tried to start the car a couple of days later and nothing, the alarm would not work, nor would the car start. Nothing on the car would work. I thought to my self that the battery was dead. On Feb. 14 I put a battery charger on the battery, it let it charge for 7 hours and the car still would not start. I then placed jumper cables on the battery and tried to jump start the car using a Chevrolet Tahoe still nothing. Now the alarm works, the lights work, and the radio works, but I still cannot get the car to start. Does any one have any ideas on what might be wrong with the car..

If you can't jump start it but your other electrical parts work, it's not your battery. Get thee to a dealer via 800-smart-usa.
