I went out to the SC this morning to go for a quick drive. When I got in I noticed that it sounds like the door locks are just repeatedly trying to lock / unlock about every 10 seconds or so but they are not actually locking or unlocking… just the sound. Nothing I can do will stop this, I even unplugged the window/lock switches on both doors.

I try to start the car and nothing… dead battery.

So I use my IS350 to jump it and every time I connect the jumper cables, the car alarm goes off. I fixed this by turning off the valet and remote switches and when I connect the jumper cables the car gets power – but it still Won’t Start!

With the jumper cables connected - the power windows work, radio, air, etc but it doesn’t even attempt to start; doesn’t make a sound. The only thing that doesn’t work (other then the car starting) are the door locks.

I’ve never had an issue other then the occasional dead battery which was always fixed by either a easy jump start or a new battery.

Any thoughts? Dead battery, alternator, starter?

Problem solved...

For anyone wondering it wasn't the door locks... the passenger seat forward/backward switch was stuck in the back position for some reason and it was trying to move the seat back every 10 seconds or so (it was already fully back) and this actually killed the car battery after sitting there doing this for 2 days.

The SC lives on!
