Ok guys, maybe I am a newb but I can take care of most of the problems with my 00 xj that arise...
so here is the deal... about once a year, I will drive and everything starts and runs normally.. then out of nowhere the next start... perhaps only a couple minutes later I turn the key.. get a big click and everything is totally dead.. battery COMPLETELY discharged, then I took my boat battery from the back to try and jump myself... and it ate that battery too! and now neither battery will take a charge after.. and now.. same problem.. wont start with a jump for about 3-5 minutes then will and then it dies like the f-ing idle is set too low... so werid.. ever heard of this before? the battery is only 8 mo. old and the alternator and starter are good...
