Battery Problem???

[maddogz]

So, getting the car ready for summer and was going to start her up. Put in a fully charged 2 year old battery. Nothing. Moved the positive connector around and she got power. Put the Splash shield and tire back on. Went to start it and as soon as the starter turned, it died right then and there and no power anywhere. So, I checked the remote terminal and it read 10% power(I have no idea if this can be a accurate reading by going through the remote terminal). I then checked the battery and it was now at 75% power. The only thing that really wanted to work was the alarm but therer was not enought power for it to do anything but make a slight sound. It got dark and I got hungry so I'm leaving it till tomorrow. Anyways, I'm hoping it just a fuse or something but if anybody could help me with some suggestions that would be great.

It's a 94 with 57,000 KM

I didn't read where you cleaned the car and battery's terminals. That you moved the positive connector around and got power indicates a bad connection.

I would look very closely at the battery cables and especially the connectors. Might also change out the battery...admitting that I have a very low threshold concerning questionable batteries on Gen I and II cars.

Did you get it started?

Yes I did thanks. Just washed it with baking soda and warm water for a few minutes. Should have known, something close to that happened last year with my nsx.

Probably will have lots of questions over the next month or so.
