That battery is dead......get it charged and tested. Many parts stores will do this for free, if you don't have a good battery charger at home.

The battery is dead? I did attempt to jump start it and that didn't start her.

Gentlemen... you were RIGHT!

I went to Advance Auto to have them run a test on the battery - came up as "Bad Cell" and even the clerk said it was deformed. Picked up a new one there on the spot and she just started as if she rolled off the lot. I think I'm still going to spend the extra $30 and get a new Main Relay - not too happy about my soldering job.

Thanks very much!

:) You are back on the road......I'd let the $30 for the relay collect a bit of interest and wait to see if any issues come along.

Gentlemen,

Can I use vaseline to coat the battery terminals?

Thank you!

Sure. Wheel bearing grease will last longer though.
