JUST FOR GIGGLES--SNATCH THE BATTERY OUT, TAKE IT TO A POPULAR AUTO PARTS STORE. AT MANY, THEY WILL THOROUGHLY TEST IT FOR FREE

THIS WILL ELIMINATE ONE FACTOR OUT OF THE EQUATION. BEFORE YOU HAVE 10 OTHER FACTORS ALL MINGLED TOGETHER. EVEN A BRAND NEW BATTERY CAN BE BAD IMMEDIATELY/ IN AN HOUR/ IN 2 WEEKS/ ETC (OR ANY OTHER MAN-MADE ITEM)

NEXT CHECK ALL OF YOUR FUSES AND FUSIBLE LINKS---NORMALLY THIS IS WHAT GOES IN YOUR SITUATION. ONE OF THESE BLOWN. WOULD PREVENT THE ALTERNATOR FROM CHARGING THE BATTERY, AND MAKE OTHER STUFF NOT WORK CORRECTLY, OR AT ALL

KEEP US POSTED ON PROGRESS
