Boost, hummmmm ?????????????
a charger with a boost button? (big shops have this)
or you mean jumper cable , jump started from a running other car?


my wild guess. is you always start fine, when jumper cable jumped.
this proves, the
battery in your car is BAD or is only discharged.
for 100 years now, same deal.
try a fresh battery off a good car.
works now, so ??? yours is weak or bad!

but started car , is the voltage 13.3. to 15v? a walfart $10 meter.?
no , then the charge system is bad (charge lamp on?)
note, i said system. not a specific part.

if the charge system is failing.?

  1. bad battery. tha'ts right alts do shut down with battery bad. (open or shorted battery)
  2. loose alternator pulley belt.?
  3. bad alternator wires. connections.? or bad battery cables.?
  4. scan the PCM most 2007 will report what is wrong with voltages and charge. scan it.
engine rpm way below normal at idle 800 is typ. good. 400 dead wrong.
battery cables bad.
battey cables lugs green with corrosion
someone put the minus cable far end to the wrong part>?
this minus cable has correct spot near the starter.
some fit to block others to stater , bolt or bell blots.
to frame is wrong, seen that , with lazy work.

Engine will not turn over in my ford freestyle

Are you sure the battery is up to snuff. A low battery will let the lights come on but not enough power to turn engine over. If you hear a clicking sound when you try to start the engine that usually means the battery is low. Try boosting or put a charger on the battery and try that.

the car as a wire connected to the chassis and he is descharging the battery. you have to go to a car electrician and look wall the cables to see where he is not isolated.

I believe i have a weak battery on my car when i tried starting the car after it had sat a month it was dead. I boosted it and it started and run fine. I bought a trickle charger and put it on the battery....

The charger shouldn't have hurt the battery but corrosion is caused by fumes from the battery being charged or used. If you know the cable ends are clear, the battery probably has a dead cell and will need replaced. Most parts stores will do a load test on the battery for free.

I have a very strange issue with my 93 Saturn that i just cant figure out. This is what is happening. The car starts and runs just fine when I boost the car. Then when the battery gets enough power and I...

it is the ecm, it sits there on all 91-99 saturns. i heard that sound once on a 94 when i accidentally hooked a charger up backwards. I do not know how you managed to replace it without knowing what it was, makes no sense to buy and install a part and not know what it is.
