Car had been sitting for 3-4 days and the battery was deader than a doornail when I tried to start it. Jump started it, it ran for 10-15 minutes, drove it for a mile or two, reset radio codes, turned off engine, tried to restart and..... dead again-nuttin' no dash lights, radio back on "code needed" flash. Did I not drive it long enough to "charge it enough"?
Battery is an Interstate- less than a year old, has "newish" alternator, maybe less than two years old. No dying battery or fading dash lights symptoms of alternator brush failure. Just dead battery, never happened before and car has been left to sit before too.
Bad battery?
Alternator?
