battery dieing - 2000zx3sct - 01-04-2013
So for the past couple of days I've been almost pits rally pulling my hair out ...... Two days ago I went to leave for work and my car wouldn't start , there is power to the whole car but it just won't turn over (makes the clicking noise ) and tonight went to leave work and same thing.... So I played with the wires going to my coil and the lights starting flickering like crazy ... Went inside the car and that clicking noise that I heard when starting was going off like crazy ... So I going to start with the coil wires ... But any other suggestions ... Battery is brand new and the alternator was swapped a couple of months ago.

Yea Im thinking that the coil wires shouldn't have anything to do with it but the flickering of the lights kind of puzzles me . I will check the grounds also.

Ok so I figured out my problem , which also was the solution to why only one of my headlights was working , turns out it was very simple . I check my connections cleaned them up and found a new pair of connector bolts. Car know has more power upon starting and is almost like a whole different car when driving. I also gave the battery a really good charge and it was only at 40 percent went I first put it on. It's crazy how simple the issue was.
