Yesterday, I had to jump start the car. I took it by auto zone for them to check the battery, starter, and alternator. Everything came out fine.

This moring go out to start car. battery is dead again. Lights are on and radio plays. but no power. It makes a clicking noise.

I don't use a keyless remote/fob with this car. Just the key only
