3 Reasons You Should Know If Your Car Battery is
Bad!

• Your engine cranks but doesn't start. If your
  engine cranks or turns over when you turn the
  key, but it won't start, the battery is possibly
  the culprit. It could be the starter, but
  possibly not. Even if an ammeter (a device that
  measures the voltage in the battery) says the
  battery is good, it can still be a few volts
  short to start your vehicle efficiently.
• Your engine doesnt crank or turn over at all and
  the lights dont come on. This circumstances is a
  major sign that the battery is faulty. It could
  be a combination issue involving your alternator.
  
• Your vehicle accidentally starts one day then
  doesnt the next. If starting is an irregular
  issue, two things are suspect, 1) your battery
  terminals are loose, broken, corroded, or
  calcified, or 2) you have something that is
  drawing electrical power from the battery even
  when the key is out of the ignition.
• Before making an evaluation about your battery,
  inspect the fluid level in your battery as well
  as the battery cables. If the fluid is low and
  has been for a while, this will prevent your
  battery from generating power or holding power.
  More serious is the battery cable connections. If
  they are loose, the electrical current in the
  battery is periodic in traveling from the battery
  to your vehicles auto electrical components.
