I tried to start my car today and it would not start. I turn the key in the ignition, the lights come on, the alarm peeps to put on my seat belt. i turn the key all the way thru and all i hear is a little humming. No clicking no nothing else. I turned the key 4 times. The lights come on, the beeping starts, but just a little humming. What can it be?

It is a 2005 Pontiac Wave/Aveo.

Can I attach booster cables to start it? ( though I do not think it is the battery) or do I need it towed to the garage? thx for your advice.

3 months ago I had 2 new wall outlets added to my kitchen to accommodate a new cupboard sometime later this year. The electrician drilled a hole to the basement and fed the wires down and connected them to a connector? box (Silver, 3 - 4 inch diameter) in the basement. My question for this one: how are these wires protected since the fuse box for the different appliances is upstairs.

A week ago I used the toaster oven and the microwave at the same time - each of them plugged in separately into the TOP plug of the 2 double outlets. Both appliances shut off within 2 sec when running together - so I gather they needed too much power.

Did I burn both wires of the two outlets ? Or what happened? Because there is no juice coming out anymore from the top outlet, however the bottom ones still work.

Also - a third outlet (again the top part of the double outlet) is not working any more either since that incident.

How is this problem solvable? I did check the fuse box and none of the fuses were off.

I gather I put myself in big trouble with this confuddled incident.

Thanx for your answers.

I have a small TV - analog - with an indoor antenna, bigger than rabbit ears.

I bought a converter box, hooked it all up as it stated in the manual

and went into my 'menu' section of the TV to search for channels.

The TV searched and found no Channels. not even one. (I am in Hamilton)

What are my OPTIONS now to get some TV going? thank you much.

i am not able to figure the "black or white" cable from the chandelier- they look the same -

so can i connect either cable to black or white from the ceiling box?

what do i do with the green wire coming from the ceiling box? connect to where or cap it off?

also: will my bulbs blow if i connected the wired incorrectly? or what are the consequences?

pls and thx.

the first small window opens up on my screen showing me this message: you are over quota, please reconfigure to use less space. I am not sure what that means and how to resolve it.

please help. thx.
