Intermittent Radio and Blinkers until driven a while

Like the title says, the radio and blinkers won't work at all at first and then will slowly come up on the screen then back off... then on for longer but cut off... then finally play a blip of music and then back off... blinkers act the same, won't work, then will work a little longer...


After driving around it improves and improves until the point where it all works as it should 100% of the time after around 5-10 miles. And it can then sit for even a few hours at work and start right up with everything working. Then after sitting for a few days or a week or two (doesn't get driven as much now) it'll be right back to the intermittent behavior.


Figured the 12 year old OEM battery was to blame, replaced it with a Duralast Gold, same issues.


Any idea on where to start troubleshooting? Keyword searches on this forum for this either are too generic or return nothing because they're too specific.
