Default Wont start!

Go figure. New exhaust system yesterday and today the truck wont start!

When I place the key in and turn....all the idiot lights blink and flash. The fuel guage needle swings from full to empty and back constantly as well?

One in a while, I get the click click click, but no joy on turning over? Battery seems fine? Had it on the juicer all night, but still failed to turn over today!

I'm thinking it may have something to do with my add-on remote starter. Installed last fall w/out problems to date.

When I click the remote to start....she just tries to start and cycles over and over again.

Whan I put the key in the ignition....notta a thing?

I want to hear my new FLOWMASTER!

Did you weld it in? If so then did you disconnect the battery? If not maybe you fried something with the computer system. Just a thought.

The truck ran fine for two days after the exhaust install. The Bat was never disconnected. Not sure what welding would have caused anyhow.

Just a BAD negative battery connection. Go figure!
