My Lincoln MKZ 2007 started jerking and sputtering and died. Battery cranks but no gas smell. Help

Try banging on the fuel tank while someone cranks over the engine. If vehicle starts or tries to start, suspect a fuel pump failure and replacement will be required

I turned the key to the "on" position and listened to music while washing my 2011 MKZ. The music stopped and now the car will not start. No lights, nothing. There is a constant chirping sound under

Hook a charger up overnight, or try the jumper cables again. Make sure they are connected to the matching terminals. Check to see if anything has power without starting the car. Lights or radio working with key in the ACC position? If not, something has killed power from the battery- maybe a main fuse or a power distribution relay. Make sure the cables/connections aren't corroded at the battery posts.

My wife dropped the kids off in her lincoln MKZ, then went to the gas station to get gas. When she went to start the car it would start and nothing happened. When I got there someone was jumping the car...

It is very possible for the battery to just die even when the car is running and charging properly. Batteries have a designed working life but that is normally a guide. Some will be replaced during waranty period while other work for 4 years. It would be a good idea though to check for any shorting that might cause the battery to go flat, the charging system itself and a disconnecte lead from alternator to battery.

Hi there !

I won't say its an alternator problem because the alternator only charges the battery when its on, And it should start with the jump cables even if the battery and the alternator are bad. your Issue is not clear. Does the car start when you jump it ?

I don't know what is wrong with my car the belt just recently broke and we had to replace it but before we did that the battery died when we were driving and we killed the battery trying to get the car...

sounds like it may be a bad alternator. jump start the car and if it gets going disconnect the negative battery cable and if it dies you have a bad alternator. It may die as soon as you unplug the jump start cables.
