Do a load test on the battery. Batterys can have voltage but not enough
amps to do anything. Could be internally shorted plates or a dead
cell. Had a friend with a similar problem and a brand new Die Hard
Batery. He tore half the car apart looking for the drain and it turned
out to be a "faulty battery". Brand new yet. I assume you have about
13+ volts at the battery with the car running?????
