Battery
Hi ya'll.
Battery went dead on a cherokee sport 2001 td a few weeks ago.
I pushed it down a hill and it started. Ran normally, no problems.
I didn't drive it for a week and its gone dead again.
The key comes out one turn before lock position.
I wonder if this has anything to do with it, or if i just need a new battery....and what battery would be a good investment...i live in spain.
Thanks

As long as the key isn't left in the Accessory position when the Jeep is not running, the key falling out has nothing to do with battery charge.
(When on rough roads the key on my '99 XJ falls out all the time with no issues)
Charge the battery then have it tested... the result will let you know if the battery is ok.
If not, replace the battery.
If it tests ok, you will need to locate the drain on the battery.
