    Bravo! :This fixed all electrical issues I was having with my 2006 KIA Sportage Lx! :
    With a drill and a wire brush I cleaned ground cable ends & the painted metal surfaces under them. Cleaned Battery ends and connectors, No more noise from engine through speakers, engine Misfires, weak AC, Flickering dash lights, Radio shorting out when ac is on, battery draining, Over 2 years dealing with this --$$.........All gone now! ..Thank you so much Sir!

    You just saved me a tow to the dealer!!!! I had a new battery in a 2017 Kia Sorento. We ran the car all day and then parked it for 45 minutes and I had no lights nothing at all. I took the new battery and had it checked and it was fully charged, which rules out the alternator, I checked all of the fuses I was stumped. We already called the tow truck and I saw your video so I checked the ground and BAM I have power again! Thank you so much for posting this! God Bless! Peace!

    Chris my man, you are a genius! I did as you described, cleaning the ground connection on the negative terminal and both terminals and it made a HUGE difference. Thank you for your video and enlightening me about the problem. I am sure you saved me a lot of money by not having to pay my mechanic to try to figure this out. God bless you brother.
