I recently installed an ipod interface on my 01 ws6, using the cd changer port. I've been driving the car all this week without any problems. Today, i left my ipod plugged into the interface while i went inside for about 10 minutes. I came out ready to leave, and the car wouldnt turn over once. I figured that leaving my ipod plugged in just drained the battery. So, I tried jumping it without any lucky. I then connected the cables to the positive lead by the fuse box and the negative lead close the battery. The car then fired right up. After a 10 minute car ride home, I tried to restart the car. It wouldn't turn over once. Any ideas why the car wouldnt jump through the leads on the battery and why the battery didn't recharge?

The battery is shot.

I forgot to mention that the positive lead was lose after I tried jumping the car. Is the battery just shot or is the wiring toast also.

Ok, Then tighten the connections and try again.

Well I did try after i discovered it was loose. No luck. That's probably what killed the battery though...I hope. Batteries are cheap
