I was doing really well for a monday morning. Left the house on time with all baggage, but then the car wouldnt start. The battery light flashed on and off and there was a strange electrical ticking sound. I am presuming that the battery is dead as I havent driven it for over a week. I really dont know a lot about cars, and am not registered with the AA and my husband is away for a few days. We have moved out of our home while work is being done and now live 8 miles from the school so I really need the car! I also dont know anyone local who can help me.
My mum is driving over this afternoon with her car, and I am presuming that I need jump leads and can take some power from her battery to mine.
Where do I start though?? DO all jump leads work on all cars?? I have a 1995 VW polo...
Once I have got the jump leads what do I do?? I am a little wary about electricuting myself!!
TIA
