Won't start after hooking battery back up
 

after fryin a battery I got it replaced by a friend that had a spare layin around...and he gave me the advice of unhooking the battery before I do anything electrical. . . so I did that exact thing. I unhooked the Neg. terminal of the battery. . . un hooked 2 speakers from my deck. . .hook the battery back up...tried to start the car....no go..

I see the battery gauge is below half...what do I do? or what did I do?

Hi Chris, welcome to Mustang Forums!

The first thing I would do would be to throw a volt meter on the battery to see if it needs a charge. Next step would be to either jump it and let the car's charging system charge it up, or hook it up to a battery charger and let it sit overnight.

All battery terminals should be tite and bright.
That means using the terminal cleaner brush on both
and the posts.
