Sounds like a bad connection somewhere. Check grounds and positive battery cable.

Is your battery going dead or is the car just not starting? If the battery is going dead then you may have a drain.

You can check for this using a multimeter and see if the battery is drawing current while the car is off.

You may also want to check out some of the threads below on this subject as there is some good info in them.
