Ok help !!
I was trying to install a short shifter took off the negative terminal on the batt. That was the night before. Together put everything back together. Music plays Dash lights come on. As i try start the car it dies. Now nothing turns on.

What do i do? Jump start the car/batt again?

its the positive cable that runs from the back of the starter *near the back of the engine and runs to the positive terminal. check the post remove the cables from the post and reassure the cables and reattach the cables, though if the car turned off that does not sound like your cables it would have to be a faulty alternator does you car have an amp gauge? to see how many volts its putting out??
