I put in new battery 6 months ago. After 3 months not being driven the battery is dead. It won't jump start and it won't charge. ??????

HI there,

Some battery chargers need to detect a small voltage before they start charging, you may have to jump a good battery to it and then hook up the charger and see if it will start to take a charge, try this first.
