So I get in my car today (91 KA24DE) and go to start it, and NOTHING. So i turn on my dome light and nothing so I assume dead battery. Throw it on the charger let it charge 20 mins and says charged. Go to start and still nothing. So i guess bad battery or bad charger and go pull my optima battery out of the mustang. Get in and turn the key to aux and everything turns on but when i try to start NOTHING and then none of the aux work again. WTF???? :tweak:
And, if i disconnect the battery for few seconds then hook it back up aux works until i try to start it again. I HAVE NO CLUE what this could be. ANY IDEAS WOULD HELP. THANK YOU

The connectors on the battery? They're tight and clean, checked that...and my ground looks fine too. Are there other connectors im over-looking?

Well i feel really stupid, i replaced the connector for the positive cable and it started right up. I looked at the old one and it was cracked so that was apparently the problem. Thank YOU!!
