Hi Daniel,

Sorry to burst your bubble. But yes it can be the battery. Just because all your electrical works fine doesn't mean you don't have a bad battery.

Your battery can be fully charged and all your electrical work just fine. But if the CCA (Cold Cranking Amps) are low your vehicle won't start.

I would suggest you either jump start the vehicle to see if it will start, if it does then go to your local auto parts store and have them test it. Or take the battery out and take it to the auto parts store.
