I just installed a 4 gauge cluster in my '13 1LT. I left the stereo on, and got distracted for a bit. Came back, car was dead.

I used a li ion jump pack to jump her, and she fired right up, but once the jumper pack was off, nada, nothing.

So I took the battery into a parts store, they said the battery was good, just needed charging, so they gave her a full charge. Reinstalled the battery, and she's still completely dead. I put the jumper pack back on, and she fired up immediately. Removed the jumper pack again, dead.

What the heck could be causing this? I verified the battery was good--14.7v with a voltmeter. Could I have hosed up something in the primary electrical system just installing gauges?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks!
think it narrows it down to the battery. a jump pack is basically an external battery. get a new one.. if it works good if not make sure the positive at the post in the engine bay is good connection.
