Yesterday, I stepped out of my house to find that both of my corner lights, as well as my driver side bumper light, were blinking. I stepped in the car to find out, what the hell is up. Apon further inspection, since I am Sherlock Holmes, I find my battery is WIPED like a babies ass. My sister (who also and last used the car) swore up and down she did not leave the headlights on. When I got in the car to inspect, the hazards were not on, and I didn't bother to check the heads since they did not appear to be on from the outside. Were my headlights left on? Is this just my babies way of telling me someone neglected her very basic needs?

Something as simple as leaving the door slightly ajar causing the dome light and courtesy light in the doors to go on may be enough to kill an already weak battery.

As for forgeting the headlights... The headlights on my car automatically turn off as soon as I open the door with the engine off.

Yeah, your LE sucks ass!
It's because your door trigger for your driver's side isn't working properly. You need to grease it or replace it.

Yeah, thats exactly your problem.
My back door triggers stick but they stick in the off position because of the rubber boots. I just flick it like a nipple and there you go, pops up perfectly just like a THO. :grin:

If that doesn't work you could always flick your own...
