Please help me. My car is 150 miles away in NJ since Aug 8..It will not start. A parking garage had my car 10 hours stated that the car died, they disconnected battery tried to jump and no juice. they rolled it forward down hill and backward into a spot. I tried to start dash lights flickered, long whirring sound, dead. had to be towed. sat 6 weeks, now no juice at all, battery is 2 years old and fully charged. when button is depressed, nothing. someone said i needed a starter? please help me. I'm a domestic violence victim and i need my car as i have 2 daughters.

 

First thing to do is to have someone reliable test (not just charge) the battery. Take it from there. You may have a bad starter but that wouldn't cause "dash lights flickered, long whirring sound, dead". Something's up with the battery/electrical system.

 

Agree with Keith. ....doing a load test is the only way too know for sure if it's the battery. I would try to jump start it again, with the donor car running and rev'ing slightly. A tow company would be able to do this.
