This all began back in July, I replaced my battery in my 2019 Chevy equinox. Had to jump it every time we started it for a short time (getting money together for repairs) to the point the battery was very near total failure. So we put in a new one, done. Figured the alternator would be next, so I started getting repair money for that together… took longer then expected or ideal but finally was able to get the new one about 10 days ago. In the time between the first two repairs, I started having an issue with my infotainment center not turning off when I turned the car off. It would run on and off all night long until the battery was dead, so I started pulling the fuse when we were home for the night. It was something I had to get used to doing so as a result we ended up jumping the car quite often so between that and the alternator failing - basically we tore that battery up. So I got another one - now both alternator and battery have been replaced within 3-4 days of each other. Guess what - car won’t start. Lights come on full brightness, horn honks, etc. the car is getting power. but wont start and does not make a clicking like repetitive as if when the battery is dead, there is one kind of tick sound and then nothing. Tried to jump it, nothing. Checked starter fuses, they are fine. I’ve been stranded sleeping in my car for several days at this point. Checked connections, got new terminals, tried remote start but that didn’t work either. Voltage to battery sits about 12.3 going up or down minimally but not under 12. What can I do or try? Was thinking it needs a new starter but don’t have the money and can’t make the money without a vehicle. Any suggestions are appreciated !P.s. also wanted to mention that the motor for the back of the driver seat has stopped working with the seat completely laid down flat. My check engine light never turned off anfter first battery change annd shortly anfter I had to replace an headlight I had previously replaced about 6 months before and also a tail light went out. Replaced annd no problems since but happened within like a week of each other. Also my auto start stop feature never worked again after first battery replacement but I’m not mad about it. Just thought those may be good details to know!</blockquote>
