Car will not start coming out of work. Coming into work my cars electronics were going wacky my radio turning on off flickering and instrument panel. Then it acted as if it was in neutral when I turned a corner. Battery is 03/2013. Do I need to replace that or what is something I need to have checked. One of my belts r fraying also so I know I need to get that fixed. Please suggestions would be awesome. Thanks, Joe

Is the starter engaging and trying to start the engine?

Lets start at the power source, the battery. Remove it and take it to a parts store and have them load test it. Since it is just clicking when you try to start the engine, it sounds like the battery is dead.

Let me know what you find with the battery and we will move on if that isn't an issue.
