Hello, when I try to start my KIA Sephia, it won't turn over and it ends up just clicking. Earlier I had it jumped and it seemed to work fine. Then, several hours later the same problem continues to occur. The battery cable connector to the positive terminal in the battery is very loose though, and I could easily remove it with my hands. Is that causing the problem?

First thing i would do is make sure the battery cables are clean and tight.Second have your battery and alternator tested.
