    My 360 wont start and dash lights flickering.. with Warning light flickering. I have a battery tender connected overnight. I was able to jump-start the car though.
    What may be the issue?

    Just curious…. What gave you the idea to provide your vehicle with an alternate/supplemental (dc) power source?

    @zapper/dapper You probably have a bad battery (or trickle charger), but because you jump-started a "modern" Ferrari you may now have more serious issues.

    For sure a dead battery. Yes it is not typically a good idea to jump start because you run the risk of frying other electronics in the car you probably got away with it this time, assuming you haven't noticed any electronic issues yet. I know that's a pain when it's something as simple as a dead battery but you're better off paying what $200 or so for a new battery and taking maybe 20 minutes to replace than kicking yourself later because you accidentally damages something else that's now a much more expensive fix.

    For future use, if you want to make sure you don't kill your battery, there is a kill switch in the frunk on the passenger side of the car that's a knob you can turn so your battery can last much longer with nothing being able to draw from it while sitting. I do recommend a trickle charger though and make sure it's working using a multimeter if unsure.
