I have this issue for over a year now, my car sits over 1 night or 2, and it wont start again. Autozone checked battery good, alternator charging good. I have to use quick- disconnected battery terminal but it is not really convenience for dd car. Please help. 2004 mt 60000 miles.

 

Are you getting a CEL? Have you checked all connections to/from the battery/ starter? Have you changed your key fob battery?

 

Sounds like a bad battery. Pending on the test conducted a false positive can come up on the test.

 

no CEL, tried to clean real good battery terminals, battery is less than 1 year old. 3 different places testing said battery is good so we can rule out bad battery. Checked all the lights when off dark at night, no light at all including the trunk light. what else should I consider? thanks

 

My best guess was going to be that something had been left on and was draining the battery.

Do you have anything plugged into the lighter/outlets?

Just to be clear... this has happened more than once? And I'm guessing you were able to jump the car to start it? It definitely sounds like something is draining the battery.

Yes, my thought is something is draining the battery, I jump start many times, and the dealer said they will cost $400 just to find out the problem...I WILL TAKE MY TIME TO READ and do the parasitic draw test to see what happen next

 

i too have this issue, though i have not dug into it. For now just keep a tender on it while its sitting.
