Electrical issue. Battery dies frequently. Draw test revealed some issues that were fixed. Battery still died periodically. Second draw test indicated that door-ajar switch not making every time. Switch in door latch in door; no aftermarket part. Wire switched into ignition on/off switch. Worked most of time. If car sits for more than a day or if the night is cold, there is a good chance car will not start. I'm on the third battery in two months. When car won't start battery isn't totally dead; just won't crank. Battery is about 650 CCA . Draw test shows only a small parasitic draw that could drain battery in about 2-3 days. Considering a 850 CCA battery and/or installing a kill switch to isolate the battery at night or car is stopped.
