my car did this for about a month. everyone told me that it WAS NOT because of the battery...but come to find out my battery had no life left what-so-ever. check out that battery of yours.

My stang did this a couple of months ago check the positive battery cable. Mine was cut so many times it just decided it couldnt handle the charge anymore.

it doesnt take much to power the radio ext. but it does take a bit to turn the car over. i would try to jump it if you did not already and if that doesnt work look to the starter.
