turn key, car dies.

alright, had my battery out(replacing headlights) got it back in, started it up and all was well. shut it down and went inside. came back out to go somewhere, i turn the key to run and everything is fine. as soon as i try to start it, everything dies. the car has absolutely no power. i sat there thinking what could have fried. after about 5 minutes, i tried turning the key again and all the lights came back. went to start and same thing as before. what could this be? thanks.

Clean your connections on the battery, sounds like you have a bad one. And inspect your batery clamps and cables make sure there in good shape.

ya iv been diagnosing this problem for 3 days now still nothing. cleaned the battery connectors and then replaced the connectors. still nothing. so i took the battery over to the local shop where i bought it a year ago, had the check it but it was fully charged and working fine.... so i brought it back inspected all the cables and everything is intact so i had it towed over to the shop b/c i had no idea what it could be. so after a day of "working" on the car they say its the battery. so well see tomrow.


after minimal searching (to tired to search any more ha) it seems like the odyssey is good battery to get? correct me if im wrong.
