See my profile.#1 are cables POS + NEG on correct posts. OR. Battery terminals, on BATT, not reversed, or MIRROR image of OLD BATT.(WRONG BATT SET-UP, case backwards)

BATT connections good and tight?

Do all ACCs work on rig prior to starting rig?

If starter won't turn over. Lights dim out. Sparkage. Starter may be hung up in flywheel teeth. Pull starter. Re-install starter. Try again. HOPE I HELPED YOU. LET ME KNOW.

Love, Turddog
