#1: Car wont turn over or jump start or bounce start Author: Simmo, Location: YorkPosted: Tue Mar 19, 2013 6:45 pm ---- Im sorry if this is a repost, i already had a quick look around a few threads but couldn't find what i was looking for.
My car has been working great for a just under a week as it has just had its clutch replaced and just today i get in to start and not even a crank..... My mum jumped it and the car worked fine again for an hour until i drove it to the local shop turned it off and it wouldn't start again and it wouldn't even crank, except the battery works and seems to be fine, lights work, radio works, multimeter measure that the battery is working too...... but i wouldn't jump start again and we also tried bounce starting it but still nothing any ideas?????

So fingers crossed
