VerifiedHello and welcome to justanswer.com
Based on your description it could be low battery voltage and/or your battery will not hold the charge and will need to be replaced. I recommend removing the battery and taking it to your local parts store who will charge and test the battery. We should also make sure the inertia switch did not trip. The switch is located behind the passenger front kick panel inside the vehicle. There is a hole in the panel where you can put your finger through to depress the top of it in case it has tripped. Let me know how you make out.
