    I'm gonna guess a loose ground some where.... pull the battery check all the grounds under neath the battery, specially those holding the battery tray in place... clean off any corrosion, then replace them a.. and clean the battery terminals while you're at it.... just a drunken guess though.

    positves are not grounds. The negative is connected to the chassis so the term ground. You probally loosend the cables going to the positive side of the battery. Held down by a nut to the terminal post I would check those first. Then grounds and the grounds are basically any black wires bolted to the chassis. There is I think 3 in battery area.
