most likely you crossed a wire and caused the same effect as "hot wiring" the car. re check your connection and also every time you install or service an electrical component your negative battery conector should be unplug to prevent just that.

When you turn the key it clicks once but doesnt turn over its a 2000 mercury sable?

If your 2000 Mercury Sable clicks once when you turn the key but doesn't start, it may indicate a problem with the battery, starter, or connections. First, check the battery voltage and connections for corrosion or looseness. If the battery is fine, the issue could be the starter motor or a faulty ignition switch. It's advisable to have a mechanic diagnose the problem to accurately identify the cause.

Why is lawn mower battery losing its charge when sitting over night?

Something is on, as in headlights or ignition, or the battery has a dead cell. If the battery is over 2 years old it is more than likely the battery itself that is the problem. Disconnect the battery positive cable and fully charge the battery. Let it sit overnight and if it goes dead, replace the battery. If not, find out what is running it down.

Battery, battery cable or connections, starter problem, ignition switch not working. Be more specific please.
