just buy a new battery
If it can’t start the car, it’s unless right now.
If you are wondering why you still can drive the car, it because the alternator is providing the electrical power. But you need a battery to power the starter.
You dont want to rely on just jumpstarts because once your battery is totally dead your at risk of frying your alternator. I would just go out and buy a new battery.
Assuming the car continues running after you remove the jumper cables, the alternator is working. This is what actually powers the electrical system while the car is running. Either your battery is already beyond hope, or there is another issue you need to identify BEFORE dealing with the battery. There could be something draining the battery when the var is turned off. It is also possible your problem is as simple as loose battery cables.
you need a new battery now.
Don’t expect it will keep a long time.What you should do is buying a new car battery .
