Welcome to 2CarPros.

Have you checked the battery to make sure it is charged? Also, check the terminals on the battery to make sure they are tight and clean. Take a look through these links. The first explains how to check, clean, and tighten the battery cables. The second discusses how to load test a battery.

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,
Joe
