Did the radio cut out before? Did you solder the wires together or just twist them together and tape them up? You
NEED to solder them if you didn't. I can guarantee you
WILL have problems if you don't solder them, maybe not right away, but you will. I am about to start writing a how-to on this, I will post it in this forum when I'm done.
For the lights and gauges, clean both battery cable ends. Corrosion there will cause that problem. Remove the plasticy rubber from the ends and clean inside using baking soda and water until it stops foaming up. You can reinstall them if you want, but I leave them off on my vehicles, all they seem to do is keep moisture in there. Don't sit any wrenches on the edge of the battery and you won't need them
