I meant have you worked on your car recently. I must have spaced out and not put "on your car" in there.

All of the above is good ideas.

- Mon Apr 28, 2008 3:47 am #52840 with the battery in and car off/key out, will the headlights stay on or will the battery die after a few mins?

Or it sounds like you could have a short which is always a pain to find...

long boring process, been there a few times. :(
