Default electrical problems fixed!!

I was having ele. issues like gauges going crazy, windows not operating correctly sometimes, fuel gauge with a mind of its own and the car not starting after sitting two days with a a 1yr. old diehard. Then I went to the tech forum and bill curlees piece on cleaning the ground plugs and battery cables and I haven't had a problem in three weeks!!!!! I even let the car sit for 1 week and it started right up! And the gas gauge works!!
Thanks bill, your the man!
