I did the battery thing also. About six weeks ago, I turned the key and nothing happened. Charged the battery and everything was fine. Three weeks ago, it happened again. Charged the battery again and everything was fine. Yesterday, again, but wouldn't charge this time. The battery came out of a Festiva I bought about three years ago, it was an off brand, have no idea how old it is. Hope the new one lasts as good.
Ya'll have a good day, Jack Byrd
