Talking Re: Battery dies
Batteries die because they have diminished capacity due to age and or condition. Electronic loads, clock and computer add to the decay of the charge.

Do a load test of the battery, verify it is good OR NOT. Consider a battery tender to keep the battery up and retard the sulphation process that occures over time and kills the storage capacity of the battery.


You can also check for power leaks like the glove box light or vanity mirror being on, check at night.
