ok, i did a search and couldn't find anything but i very well could of missed something...first thing this is the 3rd time my battery died in 2 months (i jumped it and it was fine) the first time i left my lights on and the 2nd time the tinting place had the doors open for 2 hours, but anyway last light i went to get food at wendys with some friends and as we were leaving my car cranked and almost started after i put the key back down(sometimes it does that) but i tried again and it cranked once then nothing, no lights or radio. we tried jumping it and that got nowhere. so i left it there overnight and went back today and just went ahead and bought a new battery and pos. cable (the old one was very corroded) but i had gotten a neg cable instead and i pulled out the ground wire that came on it. so i put the battery in and my car started, i turned it off and got food since we were at wendys and then i left and went home. then i took out the battery and replaced the cable and now it won't start, nothing, no lights or radio. i tried starting it by bypassing the starter relay with a screw driver and it cranked and started for a second then died... i don't have a battery tester and i don't have a car to get one or else i'd give that info too. any ideas? alternator?
thanks
