Ok, so I haven't resolved my Accura's stalling issue yet (as described in another thread)
So it's been sitting idle on the street lately. When I tried to start it yesterday the battery
was dead. I pulled it out and charged it on my charger for like 12 hours. It seemed
like it had reached a full charge, so I reinstalled it, cleaned and brushed the posts
and connectors, and everything seemed good. Dash lights came up, but when
I tried to start it, it would not turn over. Just that repeating clicking sound from the
starter motor. So I knew I wasn't getting enough cold cranking amps from my
freshly charged battery to properly engage the starter. Figured the battery was
done, so went ant bought a brand new one, dropped it in and it started right up
no problem. I drove to the supermarket, and when come out and try to leave
TOTALLY DEAD! . no instrument panel, nothing at all. Checked all fuses under
dash and under hood. All were fine. Nothing blown. WTF?

 

Did the battery read 12.6 V or greater using a volt meter?

 

I'm getting 12.64 DC reading on new battery, but now the instrument panel is not lighting up
when I turn ignition switch to second position. It lit up 10 minutes before. when I
installed the new battery, but now it won't.
And when I tried to start it, just that clicking sound again from the starter motor.
Same thing that was happening with the old battery. I had to get a jump start.
on a brand new battery just to get back home. How can that be?

 

Something is draining your battery or you have some flaky battery cables/connections.

 

The battery cables seem okay, they are hooked up tight, and there's no corrosion that I can detect.
However I was looking at the fuse block, and the three small wires that go into a connector in the
corner look a bit rusty. I jiggled them a bit, and now the instrument panel is lighting up again
when i turn ignition switch to 2nd position. I also pulled the relays and re-seated them.
Could there be unseen corrosion underneath the plastic fuse block?
