'96 Z3 battery, solenoid, starter, or...?
1996 Z3 The key was left in the on position overnight and the 2 month old battery was dead in the morning. I put the charger on and after a few hours it started fine. I shut it off and continued the charging until the "Smart Charger" turned off. It registers over 13V but it won't start the car. I jumped it and no luck. I took the battery to two shops and they each did a test and found the Volts, CCA, etc. were normal. With the battery installed, there is no clicking when I turn the key; if I turn the lights on and turn the key, there is no dimming or flicker(all electrics work). No DTC codes. Where to from here? Thanks!

Check starter relay and fuses. Check battery connections.
