First thing, grab each battery terminal with your hand and try as hard as you can to twist each battery terminal. If you can twist either one, it is too loose, so tighten it up.

Now, try it. Will the headlights at least come on?

the lights go on and the terminals are tight

OK, next make sure the battery cable is tight down on the starter. For the wiring diagram, click here for the LX9 and here for the LE5/LZ9.

Depending on which one it is, check the start fuse. If the LX9 check the IGN fuse.

Do you know which it is, the LX9 or the LE5 or LZ9?
