Help no start

[fast4door]

Went out to start my car this morning and got power for a split second then nothing, almost like it blew a fuse. Car wont do anything now. No accessories at all just dead. So what would cause this?

More details would be needed for proper diagnostic.

Do you have still current inside the car when key on . EX : radio/blower/lights.

If yes , do they dim down when you "start" the car? , if Yes , could be dead batt or corroded wires.

If it just clicks (when trying to start it) and you still have full juice in the accessories , it could be the starter.

With these questions answered ,people can point you in the right direction.

No power at all. Nothing works on the car

Looks like a dead Battery , or loose or corroded batt wires/ground.

Have your batt tested , check for loose connections.

Agreed, the terminals at the battery and the starter should be checked for looseness.

+1 on the terminals. When the terminals got corroded on my 93, everything worked, turned the key, and everything went out...no power to anything. Mess around with the terminals, all the power would come back on. Clean up the terminals and tighten them down.
