electrical power loss issue

so occasionally i have a problem when i go to start my 01 tahoe and i have no power what so ever. so what i have to do is pop the hood and loosen the negative cable then tighten it back up. so now is this a corrosion problem at the battery or is it a problem further down in the cable itself? and i don't giggle the cable at all, just loosen it a few turns then re-tighten, and then try to giggle the connector at the battery after its been tightened, not the cable.

Re: electrical power loss issue

Have you tried cleaning your battery connections? Also check where your cables connect to ground and to the starter.
