No Start Condition

A friend has a 2003 F150 that is acting up. It started with the gauges not working properly now and then. A few days ago his son was sitting at a traffic light and the truck died. Towed it home and found the top of the battery was popped up from the case. He replaced the battery it cranked but would not start. The next day the battery was dead, so he jumped it but still no start. I have not had a chance to check it out, so any ideas on what to check when I get over there????
