No Power, starter, head lights, nothing
Driving my 87 F150 the other night and noted a funny whine from the motor. Only traveled about a qtr mile and everything went black and truck died. Opened the hood and the negative battery cable was on fire at the terminal. Terminal connector melted leaving the post of the batter intact. Next morning went and picked up another terminal connection, clamped on the cable and re-intalled. Still nothing. No lights, no horn, no ignition. Strong truck before this 117k miles and 300 ci 6 cyl. Need help for my fishing and hunting truck (87 F150 XLT Lariat, extended cab 2 wd)
