I went to start the car the other day and my accumate charger seemed to be working over time ( fan running ) which it only does for a few seconds when I connect it. When I tried to start it I just gor the clicking from the starter motor, so, is it dead?

thanks Scott

Batteries last five to six years. How old is yours?

not sure tbh, I've had the car for 3 years so it may be due a new one

Check the battery voltage.

Clicking starter motor on the Chimaera is usually the starter motor wiring / sticking solenoid.

Put the car in 3rd gear and rock it back and forth a bit, then lock and alarm the car. Open it again and try to start it again.
