    Sounds like a normal old flat battery.

    Doesn't take much power to get the lights and radio to work compared with turning over the motor.

    driving it to work wont charge the battery if it is dead flat, get battery charged and tested sounds like you need a new one, check the alternator output while you are in there

    Take it to a battery place to get it properly checked or buy a brand new one. Z's are picky about battery voltage. :zlove:
