Underhood Batter/Starter Cable Connection
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
My 1998 XJR had been turning over slowly and eventually refusing to crank on occasion. Before I had a chance to look at the problem, I had an electrical smell coming from under the hood, so it became Saturday morning's project. The battery cable to starter cable connection that passes through the tool tray plastic bulkhead stud was loose, causing the problem and not allowing the battery to fully charge, since it's also the charge route from the alternator. An hour to clean and reinforce the connection fixed all my apparent electrical problems. It's good to check on occasion. Make sure you remove the negative battery cable before messing with it.
