Quick Question

My son’’s ‘17 SD 6.7 won’t start. It ran fine this morning but when he went to leave work today it won’t hardly turn over. When you hit the starter button it turns it for a quick second and then qiits. It’s not like a typical dead battery sound with the lugging and clicking. The battery terminals are clean and free of corrosion. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Never mind. His friend showed up with the jump box and it did the truick. Lesson learned: batteries less than 2 years old and showed no signs of crapping out. The boys off to get a couple of new batteries.

Wonder if they are under warranty at such a young age? He should try.

Might want to check there isn't a parasitic drain. Mine had one and took dealer weeks to find it, ended up a handful of bad modules. Wouldn't start if it sat for more than a day

Batteries are Likely covered under 3 yr warranty. Mine was.
