Chevrolet S-10 Battery Problem
Brand new battery installed 01/14 Worked fine for 4 days
I tried to start last evening after work. As I got in truck dome light and door alarm worked fine. As soon as I turned key it started to turn over for 1 second and then it was like I turned off a light switch. no power to anything I let it sit for few minutes It does same thing It seems like a short or something the power will come back on intermittantly but as soon as key turned everything snaps off tried jumpiing for 5 minutes no change 'any suggestions?
