Hi,
It has been very cold (-2 - 15 F) for about a week and a half. I started my truck every day and let it run for a while. After a few days of cold, it was having trouble turning over and eventually wouldn't start. The battery was quite old so I just replaced it with a new one and the truck started right up.
All was good and well for a few days, then I went to start it today and it took a few times. Next thing I know there are no lights on inside or out. I turn the engine off and there is absolutely no power. I tried to start it again and after a few times it turned over and all seemed back to normal. I have since started it with no apparent issues.
Can anyone explain what may have happened/be happening, and what actions I should take?
Thanks
