2005 type-s battery keep on dying, help!
Happen twice now. The last time happened was a week ago. and now it happen again. I can assure door were all close and lights remain off when i left the car alone. I know its not the alternator, rolled my car down the hill and it can start-up. If battery is low, shouldn't the battery light on dash should come on? Battery check didn't light up. if anyone knows or experience same issue, let me know with help. thanks
when you say ur battery is dying, do you mean that nothing works as far as electronics? for example, do your lights and so forth still turn on?

All power seems to be fine but with a weak power. windows pull down weakly(soft). Tried to turn music loud to see if battery is dying, speaker bass struggle to kick.
And this is something weird, let my engine run to charge up the battery for 20 minutes, then after couple of hours later went and try starting and it won't start. battery low again. AND i notice something different than before. a small thin rectangle red light start to light-up from underneath the radio panel. I'm not sure what that means? until i roll my car down the hill again to start it, then let it charge up for awhile then that rectangle red light disappear. and plus the driver side window doesn't roll down automatically when i press the window button til the second click. Please help. rsx-s is starting to freak me out.
forgot to mention. it started to happen after i did the non-defouler for my dcrh. i know i rewire all wires correctly.

in my S the last person who had it didnt wire the bose amp right and its an all the time, so i have to disconnect the battery everytime i park it, maybe its something along those lines, i know mine doese weird stuff like yours is doing sometimes also. try buying a better battery and go from there.
where would the bose amp locate at? i'll check that also. hey ya know what that red thin rectangle light from underneath the radio is for? it lights now. never saw it before. it would be off sometimes and come back on. is that light a sign?

yeah i sounds like some of your wires are grounding out, itll be a bitch but looking like you might have to go through the dash and check all of the connections.
what's grounding out suppose to mean? does it mean one of the ground is touching something? I just came back from autozone, had them charged the battery for an hour. Put it back on and it start. I'm gonna leave the car alone for 3 hours and come back and try starting it again..see if something is really sucking the battery silently.
i mean that a wire is touching something and making it ground, this will make things come on and off. if you battery keeps going dead, just dissconnect it when you leave it sit.
if the battery is bad, then the dealership doesnt cover it. and no the battery light only comes on when it has something to deal with ur charging system, like the alternator, u should have ur battery checked out. normally most stock batteries last around 2-5 years which mostly is ur problem
