Then as i was going to start my car up it didnt start and all the dash lights were really dim. So i pushed started it since its a 5speed. I thought ok maybe the battery was just dead, but 15 mins later i turned the car off again and it didnt start had to push start it again. All the dash lights are dim when i turn the key and it wont start? Any help is appreciated thanks. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>BlowN67</b> <br /><small>Member # 4229</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2007,11,2,13,58,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> if u can still drive it from a push start than its not ur alt. if u cant start it from turning it off an trying to start it again than i would say its ur battery good luck<br /> <br /> <small>[ December 02, 2007, 01:58 PM: Message edited by: BlowN67 ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>hidnn.o.s.</b> <br /><small>Member # 1219</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2007,11,2,13,59,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Jump start the car.
