This might sound kind of odd but here we go. For the past month my battery had died randomly after my car was shut off. I had to be jumped about 3 times. The final time my car didn't start right off. Yet, it was rather difficult but we got it. The next day, i tried to start it and it just clicked. Just once and lost power in the entire car. I was confused so i threw my battery on a charger and left my house. I came back and my brother said he moved it twice to get to the garage and once again, it died when i tried it. Here we go for the spooky things... Anyways, i took the battery out and had it tested at AutoZone, it was a good battery. And it wasn't the alternator either. so thats when we looked at the terminals and the connections. Turns out there was a small metal cap on the red one, so we took it off. The car started and then it dies. Oh , forgot but we put new terminals on. it doesn't die like it did when i lost all power in the car, the engine just gave out or stopped running. I have to take key out and put it back in in order to get it to fully start. if not it just turns over. Now get this, My car is an automatic, and ya know has P,R,N,D,D3,2. ANYWAYS, the 2 stays lit up, and the d blinks repetitively, and the d3 comes on and then goes off. Plus, theres a clicking sound when i hit the gas while the cars on. Any ideas??????

What kind of car do you have?
Year, model, trim, engine, #doors, and are you in the US or Canada?

This means there are fault codes related to the trans. Got code reader?

Got mice?
How long does it run? 2 seconds? 30 seconds?

What does the green key symbol do after the engine stalls?


Clicking sound from WHERE?


How many miles on the car?
What all has been done to the car recently? Alternator? Timing belt?
