Hey
this evening i tried to start my car but it wouldnt kick over or do anything
the boot isnt opening...
Battery protection program has been down for 3 weeks now.
Now its saying
REDUCED BRAKING POWER!
START ENGINE!!
How much is this gona cost now

Could the aux battery be dead?
i was leaving for sydney , 2 hour drive to get shoulder surgery now i have to spend $260 on a cab there and more on the way back if i cant fix it by 12am

Sorry to hear of your troubles mate.
Just a hunch,
You recently did some mods with your audio, it is possible that your audio gateway is not going to sleep, as such the battery drains slowly.
Try removing fuse #6 after you recharge and see if that helps.
The other obvious possibilities are the batteries or the alternator or the control units for those.

Mine did this and it was a bad battery in the trunk.

Thanks roadking and bill,
I'll try to jump start the car and see if that works.
I got a refurbished alternator in the car while ago, but for 6 months i didnt drive the car and no one turned it on had to jump start it and since everytime i tried to kick the car over the interrior lights would start to go dim and then the car would start.
I think i may have to replace the batteries.
They were replaced a year and a half ago... :/
