my friend just got a stereo installed recently and everything was running perfect but yesterday out of the blue the car doesnt want to start it doesnt even crank it was running fine for 2 weeks and now nothing is anyone familiar with this that can help me i have a multimeter but dont know what to check help please
 
Actually Battery Is Good A Little Low But Good 12.07 Volts......i Can Hear Relays And Things Cliking But It Just Wont Crank....headlights Dont Dim And Everything Works Fine...it Just Wont Start
 
Check the voltage underload(while your cranking the car). I bet it drops ALOT.

Sounds like you have a short somewhere. The easiest way to find a short is to connect an ampmeter in series in between the positive terminal on the battery and the positive clamp on the harness that goes to the battery. Pull fuses until the current shows 0. When this happens you will know what circuit on the car is shorted.
