Hi everyone!
A couple weeks ago, I bought a new battery for my hundred series, and replaced the positive terminal as it was very corroded. A few days ago, I went to the truck and found that it was completely dead. I jumped it, charged it up, and drove it for a few minutes. Three days later, completely dead again. Jump, charge, etc. Two days later, dead again.
There is also something going on with the keys. Only one of my keys will now start the car. The other key will turn the engine, but the car won't start. Sometimes, the alarm system starts honking for reasons unknown.
I live really, really far from the closest shop or mechanic. Can anyone recommend some simple tests I can do to rule out various causes? Yes, I looked carefully to make sure there were no lights on
