Your Car Won’t Start: Dead Battery or Something Else?

Jan 6

Nothing is more stressful than turning the key and… nothing happens. Your car won’t start, and suddenly your day is on hold. If this happens in Port Orange, Daytona Beach, South Daytona, or New Smyrna Beach, take a breath. Kensleys Towing, a family-owned local company, is here to guide you calmly and safely through the next steps.

📞 Call Kensleys Towing anytime for roadside assistance or towing. (386) 675-9190. We’ll help you figure it out.

Assess the Situation

Before panicking, notice what’s happening:

Do your dashboard lights turn on?
Any clicking or silence when turning the key?
Did the car struggle earlier today?

Even small details can help determine whether a simple jump start will do the trick or if towing is needed.

Signs It’s Probably a Dead Battery

Rapid clicking when turning the key
Dim or flickering interior lights
Car won’t start after slow starts earlier

If it’s the battery, a roadside assistance call to Kensleys Towing often gets you moving again quickly and safely.

Signs It Might Be Something Else

No lights or sounds at all
Engine cranks but doesn’t turn over
Warning lights were on before

In these situations, repeated attempts to start the car can cause more damage. A tow may be the safest option. Kensleys Towing can transport your vehicle to a repair shop or home without stress.

When to Call Roadside Assistance vs. Towing

Roadside assistance: Jump starts, lockouts, flat tires, fuel delivery
Towing: Car won’t respond, isn’t safe to drive, or you’re unsure

We can help you figure out what’s needed, step by step.
