  • We had a severe snowstorm for 3 days and I wasn't able to start or drive the car. Tried charging it for 4 hours, then using the booster to start the vehicle, but that did not help either. Even used the de flooding procedure without any success. I'm at a loss and not quite sure what to do as this is out of nowhere.
    the vehicle only has 106,000 miles on it and it has been taken care of.
    [Solution]
    So while trying to de flood it kept killing the battery so I had to keep the battery on the charger using the jump start mode in do the deflood procedure.
    I literally sat in the car for 30 minutes doing the deflood procedure over and over and over again until eventually it kicked up and turned over and sputtered. It did not start and would not run but it at least kicked over and spewed smoke out the exhaust. This gave me hope so I kept trying for another 20 minutes or more and eventually I got it to kick over and sputter up a start and I slowly let off the gas and kept revving it up between 3k-5k because when I start to let off the gas it would die. It took about five minutes of me constantly giving gas before it ran on its own.
    I have a video of the car after it started where I was revving it up until I came off the gas. I have it uploaded as well.

      I replied to another person below.
      I kept it on the battery charger and did the Deflood Method over and over at least 2 dozen times. It eventually started. I spent at least an hour doing the Deflood Method over and over, keeping it on charge. Just give it a rest every 4-5 tries so you don't burn up your starter

      Sorry for missing your comment in time!
      I did the Deflood Method on these over and over and over again. I would jump my battery if it started getting weak, then kept doing it. The car eventually started!
