What is wrong with my 1997 Ford Expediton?

I have a 1997 Ford Expedition with about 93,000 miles and it won't start. I had to get a jump on Friday afternoon and it was fine. I started it up on Saturday but didn't drive anywhere and now today, Sunday nothing. I tried to get a jump but it did not work this time. My remote won't even work to unlock the doors. The radio kicks on but each time I've tried to start it and the headlights are not coming on. The daytime running lights usually pop on as soon as I put the key in the ignition. Could this just possible be a bad battery. THere is some corrosion ont he battery terminals but it is not excessive. The first jump took but the second one won't. I am unsure how long the battery has been in the car because I have not had it that long. Funds are tight and I am hoping that this won't be an expensive fix. Any suggestions out there. I intend on purchasing a new battery on tomorrow.What is wrong with my 1997 Ford Expediton?It's a FORDWhat is wrong with my 1997 Ford Expediton?
To be honest, it sounds like the battery. If it happens again get a charging system test done at a reputable garage.What is wrong with my 1997 Ford Expediton?if the terminals are corroded then it cant take the charge.try cleaning them and put some grease on them to keep them from corrousion.if that doesnt work,before you go and buy a new battery have auto zone check the alternator to see if its ok,then if its ok,i would say its the battery.
dont get a new batter try a new carWhat is wrong with my 1997 Ford Expediton?the only chance you have is to remove the battery cables from the battery,clean both,battery cables %26amp; battery terminals,replace them,see if your battery will take a charge....slow charge if posible.......then try......if your battery succesfully took a charge %26amp; still nothing then you will have to start tracing your electrical system...........to know if your battery has taken a charge,or is any good at all...you will need a battery break down voltmeter.What is wrong with my 1997 Ford Expediton?
Any amount of corrosion on the battery cables will mess it up. Clean them off very good and try jumping again and seeing how long it will last. if it doesn't, then get a new battery.
Before you go charging down to Crap-Mart try this. If you have another car take the battery out and put it in the Expedition, if it still won't start then you know it's probably not the battery. Also, any parts store that sells batteries should be able to test your old one.What is wrong with my 1997 Ford Expediton?
Your battery has a dead cell. You will need to replace the battery.
