It's a pretty new battery. About 3 months old. It doesn't even crank when I turn the ignition. If it's the battery that would only happen if it is completely drained, I would think. I had started the car sevreal times yesterday with no problems before this happened. That might lead me to believe that it is the alternator but I don't think so since jumpstarting the car today didn't work.
So, based on this information, I would deduce that it is infact a bad connection or what POS said, a bad starter solenoid. Is that located where the noise is coming from? I'm gonna try to get access down there and see what I can find.
