    Well If the battery is hooked up correctly I would try attaching it and see what happens. Could be you just didnt notice it but it looks like a main power lead to me. :notsure:

    Looks like someone might have dissembled the whole terminal when replacing the battery?

    When doing this they removed the fuse box wire?

    This is where a meter would have come in handy earlier.

    Agreed. Anyone doing any of their own work, especially anything electrical, should at least pick up a cheap harbor freight tools meter and learn the basics. They really help. :hattip:

    There's ONE problem....

    That's not fog lights... OP might be time to take it to a mechanic.

    *that wire sends power to the fuse box*
