No crank no start after rookie attempts heater core removal
coolant was coming through the vents and so I set out to remove the heater core, got the dashboard about 90% off but after reading more online i realized i should probably get the A/C system drained professionally, proceeded to put the dashboard back on and then when i thought i had it all on and hooked back up no crank no start!
There is a one week old battery in the car and all the lights and everything electrical works fine, but the one funny thing is that the radio has power (will display the time) but will not play music!
I vaguely remember unscrewing a ground wire from the back of the radio and i see a thread where a screw would fit but now i have the dashboard almost disconnected again and i dont see any loose ground wires! help plz!
