Battery terminal

I'm driving the TTA to work today, and it stalls out. No problem, I'll just try to fire it back up. Only one problem - no power to anything. It turns out that the positove betteyr terminal had come completely unscrewed form the battery adn was no longer making contact. Screwed it in and snugged it down, and away I went. I guess the previous owners had disconnected it to keep the battery from draining while it sat, and they hadn't screwed it in properly. I know this becasue when I first started it when they were showign it to me, the radio said 'Loc', and I had to press the mute button to get it to work. It did the same thing to me when I re-connected the battery.

Just sharing the joy.
