Weird happening...

Today I got a weird situation.
I dropped by my friends's house.
and then..after 5 minutes, I got in car again,,insert key..acc was on.
and tried to ignite.
When I rotated the key, all the lights inside the car..such as guages ..audio..
Went out!!!
I couldn't ignite car. I pulled back the key.
and again insert...tried again... same thing happened...

so, I opened the hood..checked the fuse box...
All the fuse were okay... So I tried again.. Insert key..but at that time..
When the key position was acc on, the light on the guage didn't come on.
I heard .Some tick..tick ..ticking...
SRS... Engine check lights... all the indicators were on and on with slight light..
and ticking sound..

Weird. I haven't have this kind of happenings..

So I got out from the car... disconnect the - battery terminal.
after 10 sec, reconnect it....got in the car, and insert the key, rotate....
Wow... It was started...!!!
What happens???????????????????????
Ummm
What's wrong?? I have no idea..
Anyway, It runs great and no problem.

you got a weak battery, perhaps you left something on or your batt is not holding the charge, bring your batt for a check up.

Could be battery going, could have just been a bad connection on your terminal.

Your battery is shot, go to an auto store and have them load test it
