2005 Maxima Electrical Issue

[kjh440]

My Maxima is dead. Turn the key and just hear the solenoid click. STarter doesn't turn over. Tried a different battery (new) but same thing. When the key is in power position, the engine lights seem to flicker.

Only good thing is that it is in my garage. Thinking about getting it towed to my dealership but that is 50 miles away.

Thoughts?

check where the negative battery cable mounts to the transmission (just under the battery tray). its been common to find the cable to have broken away from the eyelet where the bolt mounts it to the trans

Finally had a chance to look at it again. This cable was frayed. I replaced it with a new one but still have the same issue.

Turn the key, just hear a click from the solenoid. Tried boosting with another battery in case the battery was bad but still the same.

Suggestions?

Or tow it to the dealer?
