Drove the car to the gas station, cut it off then tried to start it after fueling and it clicked like the battery was dead, then it had no power, no light or anything when I tried again.

Hi,

I suspect either we have a faulty battery or a weak connection at the battery.

First, check to make sure the battery terminals are both clean and tight. Also, inspect the battery terminal wires to make sure they are in good shape.

Take a look at this link:

If that is good and there is no power, we need to have the battery load tested. Most auto parts stores will do this free of charge.

Let me know what you find.

Take care,

Joe
