It's a new battery. Well, a year ago. It was put in January 2010. The connections are solid as far as I can tell, with no corrosion or anything. As far as I know, it's not a deep cycle battery. Maybe time for one? I don't know. It's just really frustrating. And it ONLY does this in cold weather. *Annie Anderson* Blogger, Designer, Thinker & Mom web: annieandersonblog.com email: lsandrsn@gmail.com twitter: silverlunace <http://twitter.com/silverlunace> facebook: anniesanderson <http://facebook.com/anniesanderson> *Blazin' a trail where there is no path.* On Mon, Feb 28, 2011 at 11:33 AM, Greg Potts <greg@pottsfamily.ca> wrote: > Hi Annie, > > What is the voltage at the battery when this happens?
