  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

In my previous thread I said a USB drained the battery. I apologize for that.
The battery was low due to the car sitting for many days, but that wasn't what stopped it from starting.

After a tow to the dealer and 2 technicians spending 2.5 hours searching, they found that the cable connected to the interlock was loose. How that happened is unknown. They ended up removing the center console completely to find and fix the problem.
I don't think I've seen that problem mentioned here.

At least I know that the USB does draw power when the car is shut off.
