Default Battery dead

Went out this morning to go to jury duty and the car clicked once, (no turn over, clock, interior light died) Had driven it about 30 miles yesterday and nothing strange. I take that back after I lowered the top the side windows went up and had to put them down again. The only time it went dead before was when some idiot left the key in the ignition. The lights were off and doors/trunk shut. Having a flat bed pick it up on Wednesday ( a non jury duty day this week)

There are several threads on this. Could be many things but two points to make.

1) Your windows will go up and down as part of the cycle when raising and lowering the top on your roadster.

2) I had this problem twice. Could not figure it out. Nothing left on, trunk was fully down, all the things the dealer and other XFire owners said to check.
Then I noticed that the radio would go on even with the ignition off. My Key fob or my hand was touching it after I shut off the engine. Two days later the battery was dead. I pay attention now when I shut it down. Hasn't happened since.

Not saying that is what it is but, before you spend money or time at the dealer,check it out.

The dealer most likely won't know cr*p about it either. Read the threads.
