Car Wont Start
Saturday morning I went and had the rear tires replaced, came home and parked the car. Monday morning I go to start her up and nothing... Battery shows 11.9 Volts, and I even tried to jump her with my wife's car.
I have a bad feeling it has to do with the computer, but I don't know how to check that. The car does nothing, I don't hear the starter clicking or anything. Shows all the symptoms of a dead battery, with out the dead battery.
Any thoughts??
Thanks in advance.

a fresh or fully charged batt. should show 12.4v and no less than 11v under a load. ck your voltage under a load. a dead cell can show decent voltage but drop to 8v or less under a load. this is prob. your case.

do the lights radio or anything else work? make sure batt has good connection at the posts/ground on block&body/and at the starter. check your fusible links as well. good luck
