Can someone help? I need to drive my dart tomorrow

Bottom line. If the battery was low, and there's no shorts, the poor corroded connection was the culprit.
I'd then Charge the battery. Clean the ring terminals - join together and check that the circuit for resistance. If OK proceed. Check the voltage before starting, and after starting at both the alternator an the battery. Put the multi-meter on the floor behind the front seat. Probably have a hand extinguisher in the car too. (hey you asked, and I do bring one when I've having problems that could light up)
