Hey guys, today I drove from school to work, no problems. As soon as I got in my car after work, my car hardly turned over. It turned over very slowly, but managed to start after about 20 cranks. Then I got home, and when I went to leave, my car dash lights started flickering and my dome light was flickering and my security light was blinking, no start, no crank. So, I jumped it from the parents car, and it started right up. Then after my event, I went to my car and it started just fine. Had a CEL so I went to autozone to have it scanned, and when I tried to start it, it just flickered and wouldn't start, until I got a jump. Is this a bad battery or what??? Please Help!!

How old is the battery? I believe auto zone can have the battery tested. It's obviously not holding a charge. Either battery is shot or possibly the alternator? Have the battery tested first.
Good luck

Check the connections to your battery. The **** didn't autozone test the battery while you were there?

Change your battery dork.

You drove to Autozone with a suspected bad battery and did test or replace. This is basically on you.

Sorry I'm in a bad mood and only feel like telling the truth.

I'd bet it's the battery, but why didn't you get it tested? lol

They tested it and it was fine. Didn't believe them, so went to different branch today, and said it had a bad cell, and replaced the battery under warranty. Fixed nothing. Same problem. Had them do an alternator test too and it passed
