Toyota Corolla 2000 LE - battery problem?

[hyankov]

Ok, I have Toyota Corolla 2000 LE. It runs good, but there is one problem. At some point, the battery stops working. So, if I start the engine and drive around, then when I stop the car and try to start the engine again - there is no electricity because the battery is not responding. If I open the hood and move it around a little bit - it's back on. I think it loses contact at some point of time. It's a little bit loose and can move in all directions at least 1 inch. What should I do? Is it the battery, or maybe some wire? What would you suggest?

Thanks in advance!

I'd go get a new battery terminal for the positive side, and make sure both positive and negative are good and tight on the battery.

It was loose connection between the wires and the battery.

Get some tools and tighten up the battery and the terminals dude. It will only take you about 5-10minutes, just don't touch the + and - terminals with your tools while you're working on them.

LMAO I have a story here, was taking off a battery off of a 04 tahoe, and some of you may know they have that supporting braket of some sort running right above the damn pos battery part and I for some odd reason decided to use uninsolated ratched, and damn, that was the best fireworks show I have ever seen, whoa mama, it did hurt a little too lol.... sorry I know it doesnt help you but just had to put it out there lol
