That's pinched wiring.

where at? I was reading about it as a common issue.. I thought some said it was the connectors on the speakers getting corroded.. so I was going to get a new pair of speakers to swap out in the door..

Thanks.

Anyone else on the forum have any ideas on the starting issue? I really don't want to pay to have it towed to a shop then have to pay shop fees.. thanks.

Update.. I put my charger on the battery at 3pm.. it read 10.6 volts. I let it charge until i went back out at 10:00pm.. it read 100% (12v) For the fun of it I tried to start it.. it started! The charger was reading 14.4 / 14.5 volts..
after I turned the car off, it read 12.6 volts.. dropped to about 12.2.. then when the headlights cut off, it went to 12.3 then after the dome light turned off, it was 12.4... so I guess I can try it again tomorrow.. but still not sure what the issue could be.

Thanks.

I'd check what the voltage is tomorrow like you said, that's odd.
