lol i hope its the battery for 2 reasons:
1) its an easy fix
2) you're wrong
(fyi lights & windows working does not mean a battery is good. they dont pull the amperage that a starter does and newer vehicles actually have circuitry that prevents the starter from engaging with low battery voltage, so you won't get that slow cranking that's the norm with older vehicles and dead/dying batteries)
I know. Lol I want it to be the starter so it makes your day harder! Haha

Well we will see in a few hours I guess. My batt sits at 12.8 and 13 when it's fully charged when it's at 12.5 I hit the button for % and it's nowhere near 100% not sure if that means anything. If a battery is bad not only will it have to charge a few minuets the car jumping it needs to be big enough as well. Had a rice burner trying to jump a caddy revving it and all kinds of stuff. I said let me try he argued with me man I have a red top if I can't do it you can't. The caddy owner finally let me try cranked over first try. I looked at him and said I have a 160amp alternator and my battery is twice as big as yours the guy was butt hurt LOL
And if you read my posts I never said a "bad" starter. Just said Im thinking it's the starter!

Yup. Corrosion issue.
I knew it wasn't the battery! Told you it had something to do with the starter

Nooo, you said "it is the starter" not "something to do with the starter"Originally Posted by 07JeepXK
It could still have been the battery when you said it wasn't the battery. Lack of being able to jump start it and the lights still working doesn't mean anything on newer vehicles. I believe post #6 and #7 were right on. Proper diagnosis >>> guessinglol
Only post #6 and #7 huh?Nooo, you said "it is the starter" not "something to do with the starter"
