Well, that'll do it for sure. Glad you got it found out. It would be great to know where it broke, and why. That is a first as far as I know.

 

Picking it up today, ill ask where it broke and the possibilities of how it occured. I'll post on here after the information is recieved! Im thinking that maybe my battery strap was loose or maybe not fully bolted and when I ripped the e-brake the sudden jolt when the tires regained traction is what broke the wire.

 

More likely the jolt of regaining traction in the rear depending on the angle and amount of G's your pulling, I would more suspect cracked bolt platform for base of battery, OR depending on the momentum, perhaps a cracked battery, more than the cable. Something doesn't seem to add up right to me.

 

Me too Kev. And I'm still trying to comprehend the OP's statement:
"WE HAVE FOUND THE ISSUE! Broken main battery cable... SERIOUSLY?!!!"

The earlier posts said it had battery power to the car electronics, just would not turn over the starter.
Hmmm. If it was a broken main battery cable, then how was there power up front ?

Who knows. Maybe it's just me and my reading comprehension.

 

It's possible that it was still making contact, but not enough to allow a high current such as the starter motor to operate properly, but would allow a low current draw only.

I had a similar issue working on an old golf cart recently where a bad connection from the cable to the post clamp was rather nasty, and due to the poor connection, the area around the bad connection would glow red hot when it was subjected to a heavy load. Cleaning it up and cutting back the wire to a "clean" spot resolved that issue.

 

Exactly whopper.
As you stated with the golf cart it was a "bad" connection. Not a broken connection.
The OP used the term "broken" main battery cable.

See how I interpret this ? Hell, maybe it's just my southern, good ole boy accent that misunderstands the way people write things on the internet.

 

There are two red wires off of the battery.
