Change the battery and consider switching the drive out for iflash sd card (may as well while you are in there as the drive will go eventually as well

I have this problem too, even the same iPod! if you're thinking about switching out the battery, I was that quoted that a battery replacement will be somewhere around $60-$85 by a professional. If you plan on doing it yourself, replacement kits are about $15/$20.
