740 intermittent no crank no start 700

posted by  someone claiming to be Chris on  Tue Apr 21 12:50 CST 2015 [RELATED]

Ok guys, I thought I had my problem fixed with a new battery. I don't!

This is what is happening. After short trips seems like car gets hot wont start wont crank.

I can do one of two things. I let it cool. It starts. I jump it and it starts right up.

The car never dies while I am driving or after sitting overnight. I sitting for a week.

I think I can rule out a parasitic draw. And I have checked for draw it is at 50 miliamps.

Cables appear good. But Could this be an issue where the cable is getting hot and I am loosing my connection? But if so why would a jump start work?

Car has a new starter battery and I am getting good voltage. 12.5

I am tempted to do cables next since that is affordable.

What do you think? Help!
