Yup... the car is running and the battery had to be replaced. I had it tested and they told me there was abad cell. So I went to replace it where I bought it at Autozone and they tested it again. They said it was fine and just needed charged...ok so I charged it and everything was fine. I went back again and had the alt test and they said the battery was dying fast so it was the battery. I guess time will tell if the alt is bad or not. I will know if the new battery is dead in a week if it was the real problem. The best part, the battery had a three year free replacement and an 8 year prorated price. I was on year 4 so the $100 battery only cost me $41...
