    The hotwire going to stereo from battery, disconnected from battery end but not stereo. Still hot unless both ends are disconnected. Did I make that more understandable? Sorry for confusion I type faster then what Im trying to get out.

    Sounds like you don't have a good battery. Besides having the battery tested, also double-check it's the correct rated battery for your car. I got over 9 years of trouble-free use out of my factory original battery in my '09 Hemi R/T. I liked the Mopar battery after that run. I bought a replacement from my local Dodge dealer. It's pricy compared to some aftermarket replacements, but if it lasts as long as the factory one, it was worth it. You'll need a battery that can hold a charge of 12.6 volts to begin with any engine starting diagnostics.
