What's your battery's static voltage? The voltage when it's just sitting there, dmm connected on each terminal post.

Ok got my baby finally up and running! After jumping it it started right up, next time I'm going to start with the simple solutions first lol. My positive terminal is a mess, there are 5 wires :O running to the battery's positive terminal. (The standard black/red one thats to the starter, and 4 white thiner wires that disapear below the engine bay fuse box) So does anyone know what the wire from the alternator to the battery looks like? so I can make sure its charging correctly. Thank you to all of you for helping me, Its good to know there are people out there listening,

lol Yea i never tried jumping it. It wasnt showing any signs of a dead battery, windows lights worked as good as ever. Even when I tried to start it no dash lights etc.. went out like is common with a dead battery.

do you have a turbo timer? if so, those harness's have a tendency to melt down, I just went through the same thing. If you do have one, remove the harness from your ignition. remove it from in between the two sides of your original ignition harness. I did that today and whammo....all good now. Im telling you, I went through the exact same thing as you. good luck, and I truely hope thasts all it is.


whoops....i just saw you got it figured out. yeah you might want to check out the little shit next time..lolol good luck in the future

I could have a turbo timer. Maybe I like my car super riced out so I hook it up to the thermostat. Lmao Fortuantly I dont, I prefer my car clean, and yes, I have seen some kid with a turbo timer that "showed" his engines tempeture.
