Your connector terminals are either loose or dirty. My car did the EXACT same thing because of this. To be sure meter the battery to verify 12 volts, then meter with 1 lead on the bat terminal, and 1 on the connector, then vice versa. That way you can determine which one is loose or needs cleaning.

I forgot, this could also have caused the old battery to die (it did in my case). The car starts off the battery, but since there is a bad connection, it is unable to charge itself back up. Good luck, its very aggriating but a simple fix
