Check for corrosion at the battery terminals.
Do a voltage check at your cig lighter.
Check for hot battery cables.

The local auto parts store should be able to lend you one. If not, you could buy an inexpensive meter at Radioshack.

If you were closer, I'd offer one of mine.



Are the terminals tightened down properly? i.e. no movement?

Like everyone else has said need to get a meter and check your voltage. That will give you a starting point.
