1996 Firbird Y87 electrical problems okay a couple of days ago i pull into my work and shut my car off ran inside to grab some stuff when i came out 5 min later my car wouldnt start
took off cables from battery and neg. was very corroded so i cleaned it out and sprayed terminal cleaner in it and did the same for positive to be sure,
still wont start
figured it was my ground then, took ground off of the block cleaned the wire end and where it sits on the block and then used a metal scuffing pad to score off the rest of the corrosion, still wont start
when i turn the key to acc. i have power when i switch it to on i have very ittle power and when i try to start i have a lil power but not much of anything, after trying to start you can hear the electrical clicking on and off. I can start the car if i jump it but i dont know whats wrong with it any suggestions?
