Hey i need help im getting ready to leave from calgary to van and the 87 fleetwood wont turn over heres the skinny:
- Car wont take a jump
- Throw the battery charger on, it reads all good
- Try to turn over - Nothing, not even trying
- Thought it was a battery problem had cables on for 15 mins and got nothing
- Have Lights/Radio Etc...
- Beeen acting weird...a few weeks ago, i had to jump her to get her going, the jump worked fine although the battery charger said everything was all good

Any idas i need to get her fixed asap as i need to leave lol

Swap in a known good battery and try it. Or, take your battery in for a load test. It can still read good on a charger and fail a load test.

Wal Mart can test it (they will do it for free if you tell them you are going to buy another one), and has good batteries for cheap (and are very lenient on exchanges/warranty!)
