I have a Crosstour four wheel drive 5 door EXL, it will not start after one to two days not driving. i brought to a shop to check for a parasitic draw, they found nothing excessive. it started with new battery, but it will not start again after one to two days not driving. tested starter and it passed, but can this problem be on starter solenoid?

Hello,

Here is the best way to check to see if it is a starter problem. When the car will not start test the trigger wire for power. Here is a guide to show you how:
