Car Won't Start after disconnecting battery
30

Asked by GuruGX8T May 27, 2017 at 02:15 AM about the 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

So I was coming down a hill and my heck engine
light came on so when I got home I disconnected
my battery to see if it still stayed on after
disconnection, I reconnected battery and my dash
lights came on and flickered for 30 secs but then
went blank I then thought my battery might need
charging so I hooked it up to my battery charger
and said faulty battery so I'm assuming it's my
battery ?

I then reconnected after 15 mins and my was
unlocking and locking and then stopped .

Car was doing fine before this only had a service a
week ago so I'm very confused and upset

Would it be my battery would jump starting it help it

I can't afford a new battery till next week and need
my car ):

I don't know I litteraly was driving it fine all day got home unloaded groceries decided to do battery and now it's not starting and the battery charger is saying faulty battery like the dash lights come on and my inside car lights work but radio and key button lock aren't working . I've just had a service and safety check done last week and had a new AC compressor fitted so I'm freaking out
