Nissan Repair: 2001 Maxima Died, charging system, warning lights


Question
Hi, was just on my way home from work when I noticed all of my warning lights came on, TCS/Slip/air big, etc and then a few minutes the radio stopped working, about 2 miles later and right around the corner from my house the power steering went as well as all the gauges and she died.  I tried to restart and it would trun a couple times but nothing and then I think the battery died.  I hooked up a jumper but no good.  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance.

Answer
Jerry,

Sounds like the battery is dead.  I would have it tested and charged if it is good.  Otherwise you are looking at an alternator.  A fresh charge on the battery and you can go to Autozone or Checker, with the car, to get the charging system checked for free.  But, you have to have a charged battery so get it tested and charged first.
