If it acts just like if the battery was missing, check the cable connections first. Turn the head light switch on so you will have a visual indication if you stumble on the problem.

Next, grab a test light to see if the battery has a charge or if it got drained from something that got left on. If the battery is okay, you'll need to work your way down the cables with the test light until you find the point where there is no longer voltage. That means you just crossed over the bad connection.
