'94 164 LS - Non working electrics the next day

[Bob Perez <rsperez1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Looking for advice and counsel from the list.

Sunday pulled the 164 (automatic tranny; 60,000 miles) out to go have 
lunch with my folks.  Drove the car 55 miles to their house.  The car 
sat for a couple of hours.  Later, about 3 hours later, I drove my 
sister-in-law 3 miles (roundtrip) to the train station.

About an hour and a half later my wife and I drove the 55 or so miles 
home.  Parked the car in the garage, turned EVERYTHING off, listened for 
a while, heard nothing, closed the garage door.

Next morning I put the key I opened the car door and not ONE light went 
on.  Tried the key in the ignition and NOTHING happened.

This has happened several times now, and yes I have an appointment with 
Continental Garage (Joe, now in Wallingford, Connecticut) next week for 
some general work, but I thought I'd ask the list if they have any words 
of wisdom on this.

If I jump start the car (jumper cables) it will be fine for awhile and 
then it pull this stunt again...I just don't know where or when!

Thank you all in advance for your words of wisdom.
