I was driving my car it started but then my radio was black and would not turn on. I turned off the car once parked, and the car would not start back up. The interior lights came on but the car would not start. We tried to jump it with a power jump, and it still did not start. What could be the issue?

Hi,

This vehicle isn't available in the US, so I have little information on it. However, I will do my best to help.

Does the starter engage or does nothing happen? Also, I realize you tried to jump-start it, but the battery itself could have an internal issue preventing enough voltage from reaching where it's needed. Do me a favor. Try this simple load test and let me know the results.

Let me know.
