Default Is it just the battery?

Last night I drove across town, sat for a few minutes to pick up a friend and when I went to turn the car on all I got was a serious of clicks, after a jump start it ran fine. Today though I went our to go get food and it is just clicking again. Battery is about 4 years old, is it just dead or is there something else I should be checking.

Thanks

Paul

Default RE: Is it just the battery?

Well most likely your battery is dead, I had 2 replaced in my truck under warranty in 4 years, their batterys are terrible.
Go get jump started, head to an auto parts store and have a charge and draw test done on you battery and alternator, if it is the battery, Go buy a good gel type battery like a Red or Yellow Top battery and you'l be set.
By the way, don't be surprised if you radio doesn't work by the time you get your new battery, you will need to reset the radio code to reactivate it.
