Battery died now won't start.
Battery died now won't start.
The Battery on my 2015 RDX died from the lights being left on. I charged it back up and the engine cranked but no ignition. I had to reprogram the radio, the car was not used for 2 days with the dead battery. Before this happened no issues or warning lights came on. This is a well-maintained vehicle. I'm usually good at finding an issue but this one has me stumped. Any help would be appreciated.

How old is the battery?
I put a trickle charger on my wife's 2016 when she was away for a week. I went to the car wash before I was supposed to pick her up at the airport and while waiting in line I turned it off (long line). When I went to restart it - it was dead. nAgain this is after having it supposedly fully charged according to the trickle charger. Tried to get it jump started but had no luck. I called AAA and they were able to jump it but upon testing, it showed as discharged @19%. Battery was 8 years old and like you - gave no sign of it being on it's way out. New battery is 13 months old and haven't had an issue since.
