What the hell my car wont start!

I woke up in the morning today and i tried to turn on the ignition and it wouldnt start. I think my battery went out but i know i turned my headlights off because i put it on auto mode and it turns off automatically after you lock it. Ill hafta try to jump cable my car and if that doesnt work.IM GOING TO BE PISSED.

When you say it doesn't start, what do you mean? Does it crank, but not turn over?

I dont think its the head lights because even though you leave the lights on it will turn off after a few minutes. Even if the lights are not on auto it will turn off. Good luck

Oh ok...

Well, not much to go on, but sounds like the battery or alternator (then of course the battery)

-- Faulty battery
-- Short circuit causing dead battery.
-- Alternator not charging.

If the battery won't recharge, you know it's that.
Do a simple alternator output at idle...should be 14-15 volts.
If those check out, then you know there's a short somewhere, (or a light on)
