WTF? HELP!

[mootang]

never mind I think i figured it out.








here is the deal my car has a brand new battery, and last week my speedo stopped working(don't know if this has anything to do with my problem) about the same time my speedo stopped working my car started dying when I came to stops. now today I'm two houses from mine and I stop for a kid. go to start the car and click, click! turn off the egnition and try again and there is no power to anything! I can't even roll up my windows. checked battery connections and they were good.

so If anyone has the slightest clue on wtf is wrong with my car please chime in all suggestions are welcome.

the worst part is that once i do figure out what is wrong It will probably take at least a week to get the replacement part! oh yeah it rains every other day here as well!

looks like it is a loose battery cable. it wasn't the clamp part which is why i didn't notice the first time. it was were the wire bolted up to the clamp.

At least it was an easy fix....

 

[mootang]

thank god! it would have sucked waiting a week for a part that might be the fix. especially since this is my daily driver!

 

[drakesdad]

Yeah, you'd have to ride one of those double deckers to work.....

Did I miss it? WHich connection was loose?

 

[mootang]

I have a clamp on the positive battery terminal that has two spots for you to bolt a wire up to and i have the positive cable bolted up to one of them. well that came loose and even though it looked like it was connected. it aperantly wasn't. the first time when i checked I just tryed to wobble the clamp and that is why I didn't find the problem.

hopefully this fixed my ****ty idleing problem as well.

Cool. I have had some really really finicky connections before so I bet ya got it.
