Probably a loose or corroded battery terminal, when you hook up the charger, you move it. Can be at either end of the wire, so bad earth or loose solenoid terminal, or even faulty fuse.

Battery connections are good, clean, and tight. Will check the other end and the fuse. Was reading through the repair manual and faulty fuse could be the problem. Very aggravating

Check red connector in front batt, to see if has bad red or green in it this could cause your problem
