Well, put a meter on the battery and it looks good. Attached a battery charger with start capability and even it couldn't get vehicle to turn over though it did give me more clicks out of the starter. And, it did provide enough juice to power the radio and dash.
Though I suppose I still cannot rule out the starter, with the other electrical problems, I'm guessing that the battery cable is corroded and is not carrying enough amps to push the starter.
These battery cables don't appear to be common. Has anyone ever found them?
