bright.? All the lights come on. The key fob is not working correctly. Sometimes it locks/unlocks the car, sometimes it doesnt. The key fob did not work to open the trunk, I pushed the inside button about 15 times and it finally worked. All windows, radio, etc works. Interior lights are as bright as normal. When you turn the key, the car does not click like a dead battery, it doesnt try to turn over, it just does nothing. Sometimes it will sound like it clicks once but not like the normal sound of a dead battery. Any ideas? Its odd because the inside lights and radio works normal but the locks and windows and trunk wont always work. The CD player kept pushing a CD out then taking it back in. Any ideas why the car wont start?
 
Just cause the lights and radio work doesnt necessarily mean the battery isnt dead, could be just enough to power those and not enough to kick the starter enough to turn your plate. Do your lights dim while trying to start it? Try to jump start it first (the cheapest to do) if not, could be your starter. Also, locate your starter and have someone bang on it with a blunt object while you turn your key and see if it starts, if it does then its absolutely the starter.
