Default my rex wont start (electrical?)

my 91 rex stoped turning on. pretty sure its batt. or somethin cuz it cranks bout once then just clicks, then i just roll start it. but i cant figure out what it is. it was working fine till i hooked up an amp. i had it in for about an hour and unhooked it. then next morning it wouldnt start. this might need to go in the audio forum. its just pissing me off cuz i have to push start it all the time.

ive checked all fuses for alternator and junk, not throwing a code either. and the battery i have is one of those little ones. looks like half a normal battery. its just what the store gave me. what do you guys think?

the amp probably drained your battery, try a new one

If you drain a battery enough, you will kill it completly. It wondn't have anymore cranking amps, but will still hold 12 volts. Get it checked out.

maybe you hooked your amp up so that it wouldnt turn off with the car, so it stayed on and drained yoru battery. if thats not the case and you jumped started yoru car and it ran, yeah maybe yoru battery is gone
