ok put a volt meter on the battery.... should read about 13,5
If you dont know what you are doing go to you tube.
Start with how to check a battery

Then decide what to do depending on the result. I am happy to explain more but would be a long post so do the above first. If you buy a $15 voltmeter its money well spent.
