Problem with 1996 Nissan Sentra. New Battery, Changed Starter, ...No power what so ever. Not even a Dome Light?

The car used to start well. Then it started cranking hard and finally starting. Then nothing. Changed the starter, but it wont start still. Charged the battery 100%. When you jump it it will start sometimes but then you turn it off and it wont start again. Tested the alternator, car ran with the positive off... I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY CAR! Please help!

Yeah, battery cables sounds like a good place to start. And even better place to start might be simply cleaning the cable tie-downs, those things can get extremely corroded and not allow the battery to make good contact.



Otherwise, sounds like you've just left something off, or loose. Ground wire somewhere maybe...

One thing is easily overlooked,, battery cables need to be changed.
