X5 2002
 

I recently bought a 2002 X5 after 1 day it didnt want to start. It was making clicks on the starter, so a friend of mine told me it was the starte so i bought the starter and it wasnt it, so i jump start the car and it turn on. so I bought a new battery and it started the car right away, so i drove the car for a few miles came back home parked it on the drive way and after that it didnt want turn on again, I have replace the battery and the started, and I also check all the fuses and the are good, please help with any suggestion of what could be wrong with the car. thnaks

something is draining the battery.

I also try to jump start today and nothing happend. when it had the old battery it would not even turn the radio on, and since saturday when I bought the battery im able to turn on the light and the radio but not the car.

Is it possible the battery wasn't charged completely and the startup then short drive wasn't able to charge it properly? What brand & type of battery is it?

How about the alternator? Jump start it then check the voltage across the battery at idle. What do you get? Sounds like it's not charging.

thanks guys @ Wayne World I cant remember the brand at this moment, ill get it tomorrow, Ill check the volts tomorrow also a friend of mine told me that when I replace the battery that maybe the computer and the key code dismatch.

@ JLW It might be the Altenator but since saturday when I bought the battery until now the light and the radio still works perfect, it just doesnt star, I jump the car today but no resuts. i will check the voltage and than I will let you guys know.

Save yourself some time. Head to this place San Leandro Auto BMW Service - San Leandro, CA It's were I go for all my work. No more guessing. They'll tell you what the problem is quick fast and in a hurry.

Has the blower resistor been replaced? It is very common for them to go bad and drain the battery.
