Expert:
is it making a clicking noise when you try to turn the engine on?
if so, it’s the alternator and not the battery…..

No. That would most likely be the starter solenoid. But the fact that the remote access didn’t work points to the battery. Now maybe the alternator doesn’t work and failed to charge the battery but that’s a different set of diagnostics.

Hey, everyone. We’ve got some bad news to report: 400,000 came and passed us by, probably a week or so ago, without us noticing and there’s no way to figure out who made the magic comment. Very sorry. Nostrum culpamus. On a brighter note, 500,000 will be so much more satisfying.
