My Corvette(s):
1988 Bright Red
Default Battery dead

When I put the vet up in November I disconnected the battery at the negative post went down today to move it hooked the cable back up waited a half hour and nothing? If battery is dead what could have caused it? I did have the MAF unhooked and took off the throttle body and cleaned and reinstalled it about 2 weeks ago.

Sometimes the battery just discharges.. and IF you had the negative cable removed... that's all she wrote...it just died.

How long have you had this battery?

It might take a charge... but the plates could be sulfated!

Over 2 years.... chuck it!
