Just wondering if anyone had this issue. i got home later night. Path has been running and starting just fine, and has a new battery in it (not even 2 weeks on it). I go to start it the next day. Nothing. Seems like the battery is dead. Maybe the door didn't close so light was on all night and day. So i hook up jumpers. let it sit. Eeventually get it to start up. drive around a bit to charge battery back up. Come back later and it won't start again. the lights came on, but no starter action. Then the lights are all dim. Check battery with voltmeter. 12.74. so has power. Switch key to on position. fuel pump rely is just clicking away non stop. take it off, bang it a few times. play with battery terminals. try to start. it starts up.

 

This has me boggled. I don't think the fuel pump relay would keep it from starting (well, keep it from cranking at least) and causing the lights to dim. Do you? Any ideas?
