Electrical problem
2000 Volvo S40 4 cyl Automatic

Yesterday my car wouldn't start even with a jump. When I turned the key a light clicking noise could be heard and the lights would dimmely come on. We left the car overnight and it started with a jump! My husband drove it around for 10 minutes and it ran fine. When he came back to park he put it in reverse and it died again. When we try to start it the same thing happens but we noticed that if you step on the brake while trying to start it all of the lights briefly cut out. Please help!!!!!
