SNATCH BATTERY--HAVE IT TESTED AT A POPULAR AUTO PARTS STORE---USUALLY THIS IS A FREE SERVICE

IF IT IS "GOOD" AND NEEDS RECHARGING----SUSPECT THE ALTERNATOR IS NOT CHARGING THE BATTERY----THIS COULD BE A DEFECTIVE ALTERNATOR OR POSSIBLY A BLOWN FUSE/ FUSIBLE LINK

EVEN LOOSE BATTERY CONNECTIONS MAY CAUSE A SITUATION LIKE YOURS

THIS LINK MAY AID YOU ALSO. THERE ARE LINKS IN IT TOO

RETURN HERE AND GIVE US SOME GOOD NEWS!
