Battery Tested good....Now what?
Car won't start after I make a short trip ( under a 1/4 mile ). Battery will hold juice overnight or multiple nights. The starter attempts to turn over on the times it wont start but only a little bit and not enough to get the engine to fire up. Any thoughts?

How did you test the battery?
Battery connections? Loosen the connections, wiggle, clean, re-tighten.
Alternator? Voltage regulator? Have you had the charging system tested?
Starter?
HFL or other system draining the battery? See post #12 to test for drain:

Check the battery terminals and the cable ends to make sure they are really clean . Even if they look clean .. clean them.
Poor ground can do that .
Was it load tested? How did you test it?
