Dead Corvette...no power
Hi folks.
2004 convertible that I've owned since 2008. Approximately 50k miles. Always been rock solid. Drove it a bit two days ago, no issues.
Jumped in it today to run an errand, stuck the key in and got nothing. No starter click, no "DOOR AJAR" msg from the DIC. No entry lights with door open. Acted like the battery was disconnected.
I'm going to go check the battery connections to start with.
What else should I be looking at?
TIA!

False alarm guys. Run of the mill dead battery. I've never had one go that dead that quickly. It didn't even have enough zip to power up the tester at the battery shop.
$225 later and all is well!
Thanks!
