The battery might not have a full charge. I dont know how the weather is in TX but when the cold weather sets in sometimes batterys might act a little weak if they havent been crunk in a while. If you look at it again, check to see if the battery is leaking on the positive side.

if you know a mechanic get him to take a look at it or you could always ask for one to come in from the back and follow the sales guy back there so he cant feed him a line to tell you when he gets there cause hell it could be more than one thing and the only way to know is to get some one who knows what he is doing to take a look at it
