In my case, I was going for a ride fired it up dropped the windows because it was so hot outside, car was in the shade but still hot , So i shut it off went in the house got busy and then forgot the key was in the ignition but turned off. Next day went out to go for a ride and just dead, My wife even said..you told me to never leave the key in the ignition,!!
So i guess i new better Lol
