    Why can't I jump my 07 Escalade battery?

    Battery ran down from radio playing and door open. Tried to jump start it, got a spark from negative lead to the frame, turned key, gauges came on, went off, then nothing.

    give it some more time if it's that low this will require lots of charging time..

    If by "jump start you mean by using another vehicles` battery was the "donor" vechiles` motor running when yo tried to start "receiverVehicle? If not do so and run at a fast idle for a few minutes PRIOR to attempting to start "receiver" vehicle.


     Ensure you have firm connections , you say there was a spark from the necative connection then nothing/. This sounds like the connection was "broken" there should NOT I repeat Not be any sparking when making connection.
