Like Nemo said,
Ya put a volt meter across the battery and read how
many volts it has. Then ya start the car, let it run
for a bit and check the volts again. The voltage
should be higher with the car running than what it was
before starting it.

Autozone tried repeatedly to test it and was unable. They said that can happen if a terminal separates internally. I'm not sure what that means, but it sounds good. We bought a new, cheap battery from them ($111, but they gave us a 10% discount) and the van is running again with no front panel weirdness. (BUT WILL IT KEEP THE BATTERY CHARGED????)

The van has 217k miles on it. This should be its last battery.
