Had battery tested from AAA and he reported a normal reading. A tad lower amp level than what it's rated at but thats all. I called up a dealership and was told that they think it is flood damage. I told them that I never leave the top down when not attended and couldn't see how there could be flood damage. He told me to check behind the driver seat on the floor and sure enough it was soaked. As he suspected, what has happened is that one or more of my drains are clogged with debris and need to be cleaned out. I will need a new actuator/alarm computer + programming and new fob + programming. I was also told that this type of damage can be considered comprehensive which I have. I will wait and see if my insurance will be able to cover this. Estimated cost is 1-1.4k.
