Check your battery. With everything off you should read 12.5V or better across the terminals.

mos def a battery problem, unless its wicked cold! I live in Steamboat Springs Colorado. In the winter everyone up here makes sure to have a good strong battery, a few times though when its -50 in the morning sometimes it won't matter what kind of batter you have though

Before you spend the $$ on a new one, take it out and give it to an auto parts store and have them test it tomake 100% sure that is the problem.

SF bay area~

btw, bought it to dealer yesterday, (under warranty) but still have to pay $117 + tax.
problem is :
battery (-) side lack of acid water, so refilled.
(+) cable a little bit loose, cable replaced.

but they charged me $117? ya, said battery isn't cover
