Ok my car was running great for 2 weeks. Drove it daily with no issues at all. One day I was driving home and it died. Tried to restart it, all it would do is crank. Wouldnt even begin to start. So I pulled it home. Went out the next day to mess with it. When I turned the key no power at all. I tried a new battery but when I went to hook it up it threw sparks really bad. Sounds like a grounding issue to me but I don't know where to start. Please help.

Same thing just happened to my buddy. Starter solenoid went out and killed the battery. Replaced the starter and charged the battery. All good now. Hope this helps.

I would check your positive cable from the battery to the starter, might be chaffed and shorted out. You will have to check your fuses, after the repair. Alternator short could cause this as well, with your battery disconnected remove the large 12 volt wire from it, and retry.

Good luck
