    . Remove and fully charge, or replace, the battery. Most auto parts stores will charge batteries for free.

    . Have the alternator tested. Regulated battery voltage should be 14 to 15 volts.

    Jumping your car increases the risk that a voltage spike or incorrect cable hook-up could fry your ECM (computer), alternator, and/or various sensors.
