Default HELP!!!

Okay, I opened my airbox, just to see how to do it. After disconnecting and reconnecting the MAF sensor and putting everything back together, I got in my car to start it. My date and time was reset, and when I turned the ignition it just made a machine gun type sound with all my interior lights flashing (and the battery draining fast). What in the hell did I do?

Your Battery post connections. They may be loose and you jiggled them with the airbox exploration..

You mean the plain old connections to my battery...?

It seems like my battery is dead. Or dying. Should I try to get a jump?

Default Uh oh.....

If you have to ask that......

Just in front of the airbox is the battery. 'it could be the terminal connections as Steve said or the other connections that are on top. Make sure everything under the battery cover is nice and tight.
