Perhaps you bought a defective battery, perhaps it just needs to be charged, perhaps you bought one with too low of a CCA rating, perhaps you need to replace the terminals, perhaps you just didn't tighten down the terminals enough.

Will a loose battery wire cause a battery to go dead?

No. A loose battery connector will cause problems drawing power from the battery to start the vehicle, and it may present a bit of a problem charging it (but that is not likely because the charging current is low compared to the starting current). If you have a loose connector and the battery goes dead, clean and tighten your battery terminals and start making some checks. The loose connector will not cause your battery to go dead.

When should you add water to a battery Before or after charging?

You should add water to a lead-acid battery before charging it. This is because charging can cause the electrolyte to evaporate and increase the risk of overcharging, which can lead to battery damage. Ensuring the water level is adequate before charging helps maintain optimal performance and longevity of the battery. Always use distilled water to avoid introducing impurities.
