battery works but no lights and can not move to gerage

1 Answer

I have had brand new batteries be bad. Check your ground wire. Many times either the post on the battery is No Good or the ground wire is broken somewhere. If you have other accessories that do work but only no lights and won't start, then check the ground to the starter, engine or perhaps some relays blew. Hope this helps
