everythought battery is dead, just not all way dead, meaning you don't have enough voltage to turn the starter over. check that. try jumping your car, maybe your alternator is dead leading to draining the battery

Could be a corroded ground, it isn't always the battery's fault.. Check the battery voltage.

i said bad alt, because he could of put a new battery in or batery in it now can be fairly new and altern. Could be draining it due to bad alt. which would make the car run off the battery until is loses enough voltage to make it start.

Have you not fixed it yet? Put a battery in it and try it.
