If you find yourself stranded because your car won't start, call Ty's 303 Locksmith to come out and jump start your car for you. If you don't have roadside assistance built into your car insurance, and you can't start your car, you'll want to call Ty's 303 locksmith to provide you with a jump start. Check cost of Car Jump

We recommend letting your car run for 30 minutes after it has received a jump start. If you drive the car around, rather than just letting it idle, you will create a more reliable charge. Some folks rev the engine which charged the battery faster than if just left idle.  

Having a car battery that won't hold a charge can be frustrating, but with a little effort you can figure out why. And while jump starts can get you out of a bind, we also recommend that you investigate the reason that your car battery isn't doing the trick.

Here are the top 8 reasons your car battery dies:

• Human Error - Did you leave the lights on or the key turned in the ignition to use the battery?
• Parasitic Drain - Though there are several things using the battery at all times (like a security alarm), it shouldn't drain the battery. Check to see if there's an electrical problem. 
• Charging Problems - Faulty charging can be due to the alternator having loose belts or worn-out tensioners, keeping it from working right.
• Alternator Not Working - Your car's alternator works to recharge the battery. Sometimes, if it has a bad diode, your car will charge even if the engine is shut off, therefore, draining your battery.
• Temperature Extremes - Believe it or not, a car battery can freeze and overheat if left in extreme temperatures.
• Excessive Short Drives - Short drives create wear on the battery (start/stop) more than consecutive long drives.
• Battery Cables Loose or Damaged -  If connections in your battery have corroded, the car cannot recharge while driving. Check connections for signs of corrosion or dirt. If a battery cable is loose, it won't be able to create a complete electrical current and your car won't start.
• Battery is Old - Hate to point out the obvious, but how old is your battery. You can have your battery power checked by a professional, and they can recommend if you need a new battery.
