Default 2002 Blazer - Won't start

This past week my battery light would come on, car had low power then it would kick in, and drive fine. Today, the car did not start at all. I hooked up my battery charger and fully charged the battery. Lights work fine in the car, radio, etc., when I try to start the car it's clicking but won't start. Any ideas? Thanks

Im having a very similar issue. If i find anything out ill let you know and id appreciate the same. I beieve mine the alternator is the issue with battery light. It did the same thing with the light and voltage going up and down. Now the alternator is completely shot i believe as i lost all voltage today and barely made it home. Putting a new one in tomorrow. I also have a no start issue where mine wont crank or anything at times. We shall see how this all plays out and ill let you know.

Any ideas what to try? I took the battery out of the car today and fully charged it. Put it back inside and it's still not working.

Any luck?

How clean are your connections and how tight? Sometimes mine will do that, a little wiggle of a cable and it'll start up fine. Have/can you jump it off?

Clicking can be a starter issue, but probably not in your case as you've seen a battery light.

mk123: in addition to checking the battery connections, check the cable ends for corrosion....pull the plastic end caps off and look.
Also check the connections on the backside of the alternator.
