If the engine light doesn't illuminate then odds are the ECM isn't getting power and you do have a blown fuse somewhere, not cranking or cranking and not starting?

A spark when connecting the neg cable is normal, especially if you have an audio amp that's charging its power rail caps when you first connect. If you touch and get a big spark but the 2nd touch has ...

The AC lines don't carry coolant, if the system is charged you're in for a face full of toxic freezing chemicals if you disconnect them as well as thick hard to clean oil sprayed everywhere.

It's really not that bad when you consider how much better it is and how much longer it will last. Most OEM ballasts rarely die. OEM bulbs last upto twice as long and carry their color and lumens leve...

But DO NOT use the same 'copper grease' on any parts in contact with rubber!!! Use only silicone greases on those parts or brake slide pin specific grease.
