Ok, I just got my starting issue fixed, and over the weekend, I relocated my battery to the hatch. Now, the battery isn't getting charged between starts. The alternator is running the system just fine, but the battery gets weaker each time it cranks. I'm rechecking all my connections and grounds, but wanted to see if anyone might know of a specific issue that would cause this. Thanks.

Did you check it with a voltmeter at the battery? Does it show any increase over 12 volts when the car is running?

Haven't been able to check the battery while running yet - still charging. I've upgraded several of the "questionable" connections I made yesterday in my haste, and I"m hoping that I've solved the problem. Tomorrow will tell.......
