So I dOnt think it was the battery after all. I picked up a new one, took out my volt meter at the batt read 12.4 Put it in the car, hook it up and nothing. No power, or anything. Put the volt meter back on the terminals and still12.4 Should have done that in the 1st place DUUUH Anyways I checked all the fuses under the hood and there was only one blown fuse. Horn…that won’t case it I checked the 120A battery fuse and its good. What else do you guys think it could. I hate electrical ---

So I fixed the wires, put the new battery in and nothing. Decided to clean the terminals and clean the area up where the new ground is and it started up. Car started and ran fine. Thanks guys. Going to the shop tomorrow. Updates to follow ---

Just an update Parts are in and almost ready for paint Everything has turned out great, im very happy with how this has been going I would have been done sooner but having to leave town slowed me down. Anyways heres a quick pic before paint BTW-if anyone knows someone who might want this 2004 Sentra Spec-V (6 Speed) let me know. Its a great car and it only has 67,XXX on it. Once complete I will post this in the Auto FS area. ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v738/rugsr/IMG_2203.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v738/rugsr/IMG_2203.jpg) [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/question-about-repairing-my-salvage-sentra/210580.md?page=1)
