[QUOTE="Constant Mesh, post: 1173430, member: 615"] Battery connections have to be quite tight. On my '04 the negative cable terminal doesn't naturally align perfectly with the battery terminal. The bolt has to pull the cable into position and hold it as well as compress the connection. It's a candidate for some loosening over time. Yet I'm always wary of cranking the bolt too much -- the battery terminals look somewhat flimsy. For me a first indication of the loosening of the connection is an occasional dimming of the lcd display during cranking. The voltage dips just enough to cause a momentary blank display but not enough to affect the clock and trip meter data. The battery is good but the negative connection has a bit too much resistance which is revealed during cranking -- high current flow. [/QUOTE]
