Chances are, if you had the door(s) open (interior lights on, key on, that kind of stuff) for any length of time, the battery died (if this happened over a short period.... and hour or two - it's probably time to replace the battery, anyway).
yea i just wore down the battery, i jumped it off this morning , thanks
Tyler, It is time to replace the battery if you ran it down within an hour. Also if you are in a cold climate region then you might want to look into a battery with a few more COLD CRANKING amps than what you have in there. Sure saves time and a lot of headache when your stuck in a parking lot in the dead of winter! Stay warm and Drive Safe!
