Subsequent starting keeps discharging the battery. Then the clock resets itself to zero overnite. very annoying!
Kojak mentioned similar thing.  |
I had the same problem, and it turned out to be a faulty rear climate control part that was sucking all the electricity...i think the first to suffer from the discharge is the clock, and if you were to keep it a few days without driving, then your entire battery might drain out...at least that's what happened to me!
