Consumer Description

I WAS LEAVING WENDYS A FAST FOOD PLACE AND THE HEADLIGHTS TURNED ON THEN SHUT OFF I TRIED TO TURN THEM ON AGAIN AND THEY WOULDN'T COME BACK ON. I COULDN'T LEAVE WITHOUT LIGHTS SO I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY CABLES AND TIED THEM TOGETHER FOR 10 MINUTES. THEN I RESTARTED THE CAR AND THEY WORKED FOR A WHILE.
