How's your battery doing? Load test and charge cycle histogram are my go-to battery diagnostics.

The first thing I would have checked was the MPM in the trunk. Should be where the spare tire is. Little grey/white box. Unplug it and see if there any corrosion on the connectors. Also look at it and see if there's any water damage. Next I would have check the battery and then grounds in the engine bay. Between all those you should find your issue

Battery charge histogram will tell you a lot. Then next, I go to the alternator test.

Charge cycle histogram shows how your battery has been charging over a few days.

Ooh you're off on voltage. You need to be around 14.7v. 13.9v is low especially on a reset. You're still having the same electrical issues?
