battery was discharging while driving, i could recharge and then start truck, let sit for a a few weeks , interior lights were dim, but didn't start. I recharged battery which i tested and all cells are good. But when I went to start (with the cable still connected to the battery) and all systems/lights were in full power, but when key was turned nothing happened, just a kinda one "clunck" sound. not a click click click sound, put a single electrical sounding clunck. engine didn't even turn over. just all lights on, but no engine action when key was turned. any ideas?
