No Start

[bosst0wne30]

What's up r3vlimited, I have an '89 325i that I purchased not too long ago. Recently I just changed the timing belt and cam seal, however when I went to start my car, it cranked slow and died out. I didn't get any voltage reading when i tested the battery, so I tried to charge it. Regardless, It sounds like this...

What could it possibly be? The battery? Starter?

Sounds like a dead battery. Charge it over night or swap in a new one.

If the battery has a date code on it that shows it to be older than 5-6 years, get a new one. You might get the car to start by charging overnight, but if the battery is that old it probably won't hold a full charge.
