Put new battery grounds on ,or try cleaning them at the block and battery. Check the postive too. Could be dead cell in battery too try jumping the car.

my battery was good also. so i thought. i had the guys at autozone test it for me. came back good. i had the same symptoms you did. put a new battery in, and all has been well since. not saying that is your problem, but it might be worth a try. swap one from another vehicle before you buy. cheaper that way. just a thought.
