Hey so I'm new to this whole forum thing but this is what I got going on. 2003 Saab 9-3 Vector Brought my car into the shop to fix tail light failure message, so I opened the trunk and noticed that where the plug meets the light fixture got hot and melted one of the pins.

Last night I accidentally left a light bar on on my car. I have an 07 93 with the 2.0 turbo. I come out this morning and go to charge it I hook up another vehicle so I jumpstart it. Let it charge for 10-15 when I went to start it the key wouldn’t even turn. I heard no clicking for the steering...

Searching the web, mysterious battery drains seem to be a common issue, but I have found no common solutions. We've had our car for almost a year and have had the battery fail 5 times in the last 4 months. Prior to the first failure, the SID would occasionally flash "Right side marker failure"...
