    jeep won't start

    I was replacing the bulbs to my auxiliary lights and when I went to go test out the lights the alternator gauge is reading empty. Temp gauge won't go up and won't start. I went to go look out the wiring and it was crossed some how. Fixed and checked all my fuses and none are blown. Im using a 40 amp relay. Battery has 12 volts but nothing in my fuse panel under my hood seems to be getting power

    something is disconnected. see if you accidentally pulled a wire from the back of the alt or the little one from the battery positive

    I found out my issue. I check all fuses but one and it ended up being that fused.. my luck.. it was the pds coil fuse.

    I've merged your two threads together (which is why things seemed doubled).

    Glad you got your problem sorted.

    Ya an ecu isn't fun to replace. But I got everything sorted out. I feel so dumb cause I checked all the fuses but a couple, I even checked all my ground wires. I guess it was cause yesterday was Friday the 13th...
