Hi all,
I have a 1998 Ford Explorer Sport. I recently came across some major corrosion to my positive terminal cable, which was causing problems starting my truck. I purchased a splice kit and replaced this terminal. The truck started with no issues after this. It has been approximately 7 weeks and now my truck will not start. When I turn over the key I get a repetitive clicking noise. The terminals have very minor corrosion. I jump started my truck with no issues, drove it for five minutes. I went to start it the next day and nothing, just the repetitive clicking noise again.
I don't think its my battery because I had it checked when I replaced the terminal cable. Could this be an alternator issue or something else?
Thank you for your help.
