A while back my battery died and I got it jumped. It worked fine then two weeks later it died again and this time it was charging for at least five minutes and still had trouble starting but eventually started. Two weeks later it happened again and I thought it was the battery because it was really old I got it replaced and it worked just fine as soon as I got it replaced. That was about two weeks ago, I try to start it today and it would not start, and it was quiet when I turned the key like the battery died.

Follow the smaller positive battery cable to the under-hood fuse box and be sure that connection is clean and tight.
