Car Wouldn"t Start

[ent3rdadragon 10+ year member]

Just yesterday I drove to the fedex which is about a minute away to ship something out and I tried to start my car but it wouldn't start. The door lights were on but as I tried to start my car it turned off? I didn't hear the clicking sound when you turn the key all the way either. I havn't really experienced dimming of any kind only when the car isn't on. I am running 2 amps. a nakamichi PA-1004 and a opti2000d . Everything is stock except the battery " diehard". Anyone tell me what went wrong?

Got another question, anyone use the stinger battery ? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=9722569440&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT

I was thinking about getting either that stinger battery or the yellow optima top. oh yeah I drive a 97 3.0 acura Cl.

check the voltage of the batt it may be dead if it is at 12.6 or higher then the batt is not your problem

First check you connections at the battery.

If fine

Have your battery checked.

If it checks out ok

Have you alt tested.

One of those 3 are you problem.

if you heard no clicking your battery is dead. this happened to me monday. go out to start my car, and nothing. take out the stupid red top that was in there, but in my die hard gold, and my car fired right up like normal.
