Hey everyone.
I came out. To my car this morning turned the key and nothings . No clicking no stuttering nothing. It just won't start at all. The engine diagnostic light is on ad the battery light. The radio is on the lights the wipers but no a/c. Is it the battery or something worse?

...I'd say an almost fully drained battery hence the missing relay click...Do the lights on the dash come on...?

Jump leads to another car and try starting it. If it starts ok and everythings working then its the battery!

Don't think it's the battery. My dad came to mine and we tried to jump it but nothing happened at all. After the day I had yesterday this really did top it off!!

Just worried it might happen again now lol don't know if something was stuck or a loose connection . Mystery!
Ne one any ideas?
