Are you saying that you went into the house and left the engine idling for 1 hour
charging systems seldom at idle as the voltage produced does nor exceed required voltage required to charge the battery
Testing the electrical system for a parasitic drain on the battery , charging system testing , Main power cables from the battery to fuse boxes . Checking maxi fuse etc...
The BEST Way TO Perform Parasitic Draw Test
Electric Testing Techniques You Need to Know
Voltage Drop Test
SOURCE: My 2001 Olds Integre will not start, but later does start.
This may be a problem with the ignition switch. The ignition switch feeds power to many of the different systems- including the starting system and the dash.A low voltage output of the switch will not allow the starter relay to engergize, along with many other odd problems. A way to check this is that when it is acting up, turn the ignition key back and forth very quickly many several times, or tap and the head of the key with a small hammer. These things will normally cause a faulty ign switch to correct itself for the time being.

SOURCE: cadillac 2004 cts, wont start
i had a 2003 ctc that did the same thing, it wouldn't start or would make a clicking sound and about 1 mth after the problem started aND mechanics could not find a problem my car caught on fire and burned completely from something under the right side of the hood. i had just parked the car and got out, it happened really fast. the fire chief said the cause was unknown????
now i have a 2004 cts and i'm having the same problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! has anyone else had this happen???? please be cautious if your cts is doing this, during the fire my doors locked and had to be pried into by fire chief.
SOURCE: 2000 olds intrigue. I had battery light come on,
I think the diode block in the alternator is on it's way out. The output voltage from the alternator should be approximately 14 volts. When the alternator output is lower than the battery output, the car runs on the battery until it is depleted. That is why the car stops.
Very basically, it means that either the alternator output voltage is lower than the battery voltage, or the battery voltage is lower than the alternator output voltage. If the light gets dimmer as you rev up the engine, then you most likely have a problem with the alternator. If it gets brighter, then the battery is most likely bad.

it could be a bad battery or you could have a key off battery drain
