Default Help Me. Car didn't start right away when I tried.

Car didn't start right away. Lights didn't go onright away either...

Here's the story, I'm in my car getting ready to go to the market, Went toto turn the lights on and they were really dim. Tried starting the car and it didn't start right away, it did start after trying for about 10 seconds..

Took the key out soI could try itagain and it worked and the lights were bright like usual.. Should I be concerned about what happened last night?

Battery is 1 year old. Thanks

Clean the terminals and repost with your results.

Thank you for your reply sir. I'm not too good with cars, can you tell me how to clean the terminals?
