You have something draining the battery,check for any lights that might be staying on,interior light,stop light under the hood light(if any),glove box light trunk light, if you have a multimeter with amp testing capability or an amp meter you can check where the drain is by removing each fuse & put the probes on each side the terminals until you find a drainage,that way you might be able to find out what is draining the power & rectify it......hope this helps......cheers

2005 Dodge Durango has the battery being dead almost every morning. New battery. Anyone help?

All about parasitic draw. Check for a light in the trunk or under the hood. Also the dome light is easy to miss in the daylight.

Have the ignition switch checked, it's possible that it may not be turning all the electronics off when the car is turned off.

99 dodge durango pcm and connectors heat up causing the vehicle to shut down until the pcm cools down then the car restarts I need a real fix tired of the car dying on me randomly. please help

it would be best if you took it to a dealer and left a mechanic take it home over night,that way he can have the Chrysler drb hooked up when the problem presents its self.

Key turns on but no click or start, Radio works lights work but key turns hard. No solinoid click and doesn't start.

check battery and connections first starting requires 300 plus amps lights about 50 so lights work but not enough to start try jump and if starts take to parts store and have then test battery
