If its the original battery, it may be shorting out, has a bad cell. Shaking it and then working suggests it could be that. Just because there are lights on when opening doors is no indication of a good battery. What happens when you crank it with the doors open or the light on? If they go out or go very dim, needs changing or bad battery. Is there is not enough power, it won’t fire the injectors.
