    No surprise. That's how batteries act. There was a discussion on the other forum, and Robby helped out.
    New batteries do not test the way old batteries did.

    This is what threw me off, you could clearly hear all or most of the relays under/behind the dash chattering away. I could of sworn it was the ignition switch causing this, but I guess I was wrong.

    Yeah - My battery did something like that last summer in the middle of a city (that I'd never been in). I had no tools with me or anything to check the battery. It sucked to have to pay 80 bucks to get towed, and another 250 for the battery.
