hey whats up /o/.
so i bought a 04 350z a while back maybe like 3 months i put it in one of my dads shops that he doesn't use.
so today i go to start it to do my senior auto tech project. when i go to start it all the lights in the car disappear and the car doesn't start

Try replace the fuel pump. If there's no lights on, maybe the fuel pump is stopping the fuel going to the engine

lol
don't listen to this moron
its clearly the ECU that died which is why it wont start

i think the battery is just dead. ill test it
its a manual if it makes any difference. i bought it because i got it for a real good deal. i never even drove a manual before.

Okay describe for me step by step EXACTLY how you start the car. You don't start a manual like an automagic.

lel
this is the best place to start
>>15174821
not really, just make sure to push the clutch pedal in when you try to start it since most new cars won't start unless you do

check the fucking battery. All the car probably needs is a jump.

i press the clutch down
put the key in and turn.
charged it a little. its starting now

There you go, get a new battery
I recommend the Optima™ Red Top™ Battery with the Spiral Cell Technology™
>>15174878
drive it around for a little bit with as few accessories on as possible, let it charge for a bit
unless you want it to die again

don't need anything that fancy
just get a good old Interstate™ Automotive Battery with MEGA-TRON PLUS® (INCLUDES CLIMATE SHIELD)

If you're doing a project, you might as well get the best
