ok so yesterday i had a flat tire on the rear driver side, so i decided to put on the spare thats in the trunk so i can drive it to the mechanic to change the tire and put the wheel back. when i started jacked up the car inorder to remove the wheel the jack collapsed and my can came crashing down on the ground. i was running 245/40/19. i eventually got the tire out and went out and got another tire but it was a 255/40/19 so right now my car is sitting on 245/40/19 ont he rear passenger side and 255/40/19 on the rear driver side. and after all the i tried tuning my car on the VLC and the SLIP lights turned on the dashboard and my car wont even start! it just makes this clicking noise when i try starting it.

SO CAN ANYONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT I SHOULD DO TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND GET MY CAR RUNNING AGAIN!!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

 

Are you sure you didnt leave any interior lights on? Clicking noise normally means the battery has no juice.

I would check the battery first.

 

yea i tried jump starting the car.

 

my battery was dead and jumping it wouldn't start. I had to use one of those start boxes to get up started. You might have to give one of those a try

 

If the battery was completely dead, no lights would be on. Also, the starter would not make a clicking noise, there would be no sound. This happened to me right before I got my liscence, my Jeep was left sitting too long on low battery and it was gone. Had to have some auto people come in and fix it, they gave me a new battery I think.

Sounds to me like you knocked loose some wiring or you broke your starter.

Definitely get it checked professionally, if it dropped hard enough to not turn on, then there could be a lot of potential problems with the car. Good luck bro, let us know what happens.

 

clicking noise, ur starter is donee liek forsure
happened to my maxima,
nothing else u can do but to get it checked fast

 

ok guys thanks for all the help.
i actually got the car to start yay!!!
it was the battery. i jumped started it like 3 times before it started working.
but its up and running again.
but i have one more question.

should i run 255/40/19 in the back and 225/40/19 in the front or should i just try and find another 245/40/19 tire?

 

the two back tires have to be the same...so i would suggest if you just got the 255 penny up and buy another before your alignment is shot to hell....the car will be fine with 225's in the front and 255 as long as the tires and rims on the same axle are the same

 

ouch man that sucks the car was dropped. I'd probably have your alignment verified after getting the proper tires on (whatever size you choose). Also, glad it started. When I uh... 'jarred' my 3kgt into a sidewalk it wouldn't start up after a day either, jump starting didn't' seem to work... came to find out the battery had split internally crossing the acid and effectively shorted itself out. Something to keep in mind for future ref...

 

yea man i got another 255 tire so now i have 255's in the back and 225 in the front on OEM 19's
