More car drama today. We dropped Tom off at work and I stopped in at McD’s to check my bank account balance and get a McGriddle. When I came back out to start the car, it didn’t start. Not even a “click” which is at least what it did when the battery ran down last time. (and remember, it had just been running) Even the clock was blank. I fiddled a bit, opened the hood and looked at the fuses, but nothing looked or smelled wrong. So I called the Saturn dealer, then Tom, then State Farm, then work. Tom came down and jumped the car, which it did fine. Then we drove over to Saturn and I waited while he went back to work.
Diagnosis: Loose Battery Cables–$40 for labor. *sigh*
I guess it’s worth the $40 for the peace of mind, but *grrr*.
Now to work. Good thing I worked extra on the weekend, makes up for coming in late now.
