Hello everyone.... I have a problem with my truck. About two weeks ago my truck wouldnt start so I went and got a new battery. That new battery was bad or so I thought so I returned it and got another one. This fixed my problem at least for a little while. Today I drove my truck about three miles with no issues stopping at the gas station and grocery store. Got home no problems. This evening I went out to start it again and it clicked once and all of the lights turned off.

I wiggled the positive terminal and the lights came back on but they cut out when I tried to start it again. The battery is on the charger now and is not pulling many amps so I do not think this is the problem. Any ideas on what I should try next? Im thinking ground but part of me just wants to have my mechanic change out all of the cables. Thanks in advance for your help.
