Thanks all.
I read the instructions and switched it to 2 amps after a few minutes...thought that was too much and the charger told me so.
Let me note that when I say it was fully charged, that's what the guy at the parts store said...it was fully charged and ready to go (but I didn't see him check it). I don't have a meter, so I had to assume he was telling me right...I buy a lot from there and he's always been a good, honest guy.
After a few minutes of charging I hooked it back up and it had enough juice to turn on the headlight, so I knew I was almost in business. I took the battery back (AGM that is not supposed to go bad on the shelf as the say) and it turns out it was a bad battery. Just got home with a new one and it is installed and guess what...IT WORKS.
So... lesson learned folks...don't think you fried things and start pulling wires apart (I didn't) until you know absolutely for certain it isn't a bad battery.
As always, thanks for the replies and helping me keep my sanity!
