Why do the lights go dim on your car right after a jump start?
When you jump start, at first there is only a little charge, and that charge has to go to all electronic features in your car, like the lights, radio, dash
When you start the engine of your car all seems to be ok but later the battery light start flickering as the same as the headlights and sometimes the radio What is wrong with the car?
You probably have an alternator going bad. Have it checked on or off the vehicle at a local Auto Zone. Good Luck!!!
Why won't my 2007 Chrysler pacifica won't start its cold out and the lights was left on all night?
Because you left the lights on all night. This drains the battery. Connect a battery charger and wait about 3 hours. Then the car might start. If it does not start buy a new battery or a new car whichever you prefer.battery juice is gone.

Why are your gauge lights flickering when you start the car?
Because you are asking the battery for its full power available to crank the car's engine over. It could also mean the battery is weakened or weakening and requires replacement or perhaps recharging. Almost all the energy available is going to the start function.
How do you know if it is a battery problem or alternator I have a 97 Camry that I had to push to start and when I got it running the lights kept flickering on and off and finally died?
Hello, Hopefully this will help. If you push start your car and it starts and keeps running then the battery is the problem. The alternator is providing power once you acutally get your Camry started. As far as the lights flickering if it doesn't stop after you get a new battery then you probably have a open in the ligting system. While the problem is happening (the flickering lights) take a set of jumper cables while car is idling, take the black clamp from the alternator frame to the battery negative post. If the flickering stops, bad ground. If it still continues, take the red jumper and connect to positive terminal on battery, then connect to out-put terminal on alternator. If the flickering stops then you have a bad power wire in the system. If your car has a PCM regulated Alternator then you may have a problem with the PCM.

Can you take the power for car lights straight from a car battery?
When your lights are on and your engine is not running you are taking the power for your car lights directly from your battery. If you leave them on long enough, you will run down your battery and your car will not start. Then you will need a jump.
