[quote=Anonymous]Last year I had car starting problems, got a new battery, still had problems, turned out the new battery was bad. If I remember right, it should show over 14 v. You can actually keep your jump starter connected while the car is running to see what's happening. I did have a problem one other time which turned out to be a car usb charger (the kind you plug in to what in years past was the cigarette lighter socket) which was drawing power if a charger cable was connected to it, even with no device plugged in. And I've had cars that had power drains, sometimes never explained. I think autozone will test your charging system for free, they can do it in the parking lot. Keep in mind this is also affected by what you have been doing before you parked--if you drove enough to bring up the charge in the battery. Check for any dashboard lights too. [/quote]
