Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Long time Boxster lover with 2001 986 base. I parked the running vehicle in the garage about 10 months ago, running well. Now, after more time than planned, I am trying to start it again. When I turn the key I get nothing, no lights, no sounds, no starter. I assume the battery is dead, maybe permanently, so I attempted to jump it from a known good battery. Same result - nothing, no lights or starter. I have had a number of dead batteries over the years and miles (94K), but not this. Suggestions? Sandia

Stop trying to jump it and put a new battery in it.
