Check power to the fuse box. The Cig lighter or dome lights they do not require the key. Check your ground wire coming off the battery.

instead of being a dip****, maybe you should understand what I'm saying. Go to www.veryuseful.com and look up the wiring schematics for your car. Start from the battery and work your way back from there.

Holy ****! How are your terminals, is your ground tight? Did you check for voltage at the solenoid? did you check for voltage at the fuse panel? These are simple questions, which you shouldn't need to ask about. Start from a known, and work towards the unknown.

I found it 200amp fuse for the alternator is blown. whats odd is i was trying to get it to start, it turned over a few times and i stopped because it was turning over slow went back 5mins later and no power. I am not a Dipsh!t just lazy looking for a quick answer and i know your smart. I know for a fact that if you new me in person you would like me i think. So sorry for pissing you off if i did. Thanks Tim
