That sucks bro, hope it aint nothing serious. Hopefully its just like a defective battery and should be able to exchange for a new one.

hmmm before taking the car to cms i checked on of the codes that popped up and none of them showed the BCM is messed up.I believe one of them (after looking it up) said something about a "ground" tho



eeeh **** it...ill deal with it later after i get it back

even at 11v with the car off it won't give you a problem. that's plenty to start.

12v is normal for a car battery that is not running.
14v is normal for a car that is running.

Your flasher might be sticking. I bet it stuck off when you parked it and unstuck while you were sleeping.
