No electric from battery
1997 Ford F250 with 7.5 pickup My truck's battery drained during the deep freeze a couple weeks back. I charged it and everything was kinda of OK. It wasn't staying charged. I guess one of the battery post clamps was not tight. I tightened it and put my battery charger with starter boost on and attempted to start it.
Now I have charged battery(13.4V) and no power to lights or anything else. Where do I start? I had truck towed home and I don't want to pay to haul it to my mechanic. Thanks

The battery is toast. Replace it with a quality battery and you'll be good to go. Everyone has their favorite place to buy a battery...I like WalMart because they are everywhere and there's no hassle returns and exchanges if there's an issue.

Battery tested good. There is no power when battery is installed and on charger. I started taking apart wires. The fusible link at the starter relay is very corroded where it connects to yellow wire going to power block. I'll go back to store tomorrow and pickup 12 gauge fusible links.
I hope that solves it.
