Car won't start
 
Gents -

2007 G35x Sedan.

This morning when leaving for work, I noticed my tail lights flashing very slow and dim. Upon entering the car (using the manual key)... I noticed no power at all. Popped the hood and could hear some clicking from the battery AND front right of the engine. Stopped after awhile but pressing unlock or lock on the keyfob started it again.

Fast forward 8 hours after work, tried jump starting my battery with no luck. Nothing at all. No lights, radio, locks, nothing. Tried reconnecting jumper cables and same results the second time. I cannot put the car in neutral and wheel is locked in place.

Was going to unhook the battery and bring it into the dealership to get checked but I don't suspect a battery issue. Regardless, will do tomorrow but other ideas?

It sure sounds like a battery problem. Are you sure you jumped started it correctly? Our cars take a lot of power to start. Some cables require you to wait like 10-15 minutes before trying to start the car again because of their gauge. You might need a more powerful battery pack. You can also get a battery tester to see if the battery is good or not. Do you have an multimeter to test voltage of the battery?
