Thanks for that tip Ahmed303. I will check those two areas for wire damage.

Battery is 1 year old. I had it charged and tested by Autozone's fancy machine about 4 months ago when my alternator went out and battery tested good. When alternator went out and vehicle died it also had the one taillight and one front sidemarker light on. I always thought that was the X's way of telling me . . . "I'm gonna need a battery charge buddy!"

No bluetooth either. Nothing fancy in vehicle either. Just a 3.0 with only sport package. Doesn't even have heated seats.
