I noticed that the capacitor I was referring to is not on your model.

And because it starts so rapidly after failure, the battery cannot be so dead, it can still provide the crank amps to the starter. But then it is also wierd that it did not support the operation of the car right before the crank.

When you said that the lights dimmed, did they almost turned off before the car turned off ?
