I agree with papa but you should also check the terminal connectons to the battery first. They started using cheap stamped anode connectors and I've seen them heavilly corroded that had the same symptoms you've stated. A little elbow grease with a wire brush may fix it for you. If that does work I would get some no-ox or someother type of oxidation prohibitor and cover those terminals with it.
