Re: battery sparks and no-start



What is age of the battery? Cold weather is EXTREMELY hard on them.
Doesn't take much to kill a marginal one. Did you try jump starting?
Remember -- if battery is DEAD dead, even 4 GA jumper cables may not
be enough.

Check that you didn't dislodge starter relay while routing through
relay compartment (rear row, second from outside).
