Answer
Hello,

There are 2 reasons why it is not a short. One is because you still have a car and it did not burn up completely, the other that if you have such an event, it does not repair itself so the vehicle has power another day. This would be simple to diagnose if I was at the car, but I am like you left guessing. Mine being a little more calculated and the very first thing I think of id a bad battery. A battery will charge itself up after sitting, and an internal failure would cause it to fail.
