I disconected the positive (and neg) cables. Reconnected, and now the car wont start. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) The dash lights and fuel pump come on, headlights are bright, battery is fully charged, but no click or anything. I checked all of the fuses under the steering wheel and 3 of them on the firewall by the battery and all are good.
Are there other fuses that I am missing? SHe has always fired up, really frustrated.... |

When I had a similar problem, it was because the Red cable was corroded up inside the cable where the connecter is.
I removed the positive cable connector from the wire, cut back the corroded section of the wire to good copper, bought a $5 new positive connector, and when all hooked up, it started right up. Just a thought, that it may be something simple.... |
