remove your cables, check to see they are clean bare metal. Put a little grease on them before installing them.

Before you do anything, do this. Wire brush terminals and cable ends, particularly ground.
You likely have a sulfated terminal.
You'd be amazed how a little of this kills your connection. Used to happen all the time on the '68-'69 corvettes due to lousey venting in the battery compartment behind the seat.
