Default Passenger front hub change, now won't start

So I changed out the from passenger side hub and now when I try to start it the lights flicker & rapid clicking noise. Tried to charge battery, clicking & lights flickering wasn't as bad but still won't start. Help. I love this van, but have had so many issues

Check the area around the hub you changed for a loose ground or a disconnected ground.

just checked. I just unplugged the new hub & I can hear the ddzzz when I plugged it back in.....this really sucks. I got the hub from shopeddies.com & ots been over a month & im not even really sure how to get a hold of or return anything to them. And I couldn't even afford this hub, let alone buy another. Oh well. Lesson learned

So will the vehicle start with that hub unplugged? I am seeing these online new from $39.

I'm sure it will as soon. as i check to make sure it didn't completely fry my battery.. if it weren't for the fact that i need a vehicle & that I am actually enjoying working on my car, id completely give up on cars altogether with the run of luck I've had with cars over the last 2 yrs

It was the battery. Just a huge weird coincidence. That was the least of my problems. I'm on to much bigger issues. This is turning into a nightmare.
