1989 Cherokee
Hay guys, I have a mind boggling issue. I was driving down a snowy road, came to a stop and it died. Turned the key over and no lights on the dash came on, nothing in the guages. I played with the key an the lights on the dash came on and it turned over. I drove about 500yards an it died. It hasent started since. Ideas?

Okay, when the key is turned on nothing happens. I have power to the blinkers but the radio doesn’t turn on and same as the heater and windows. I took a wrench and manually turned the engine over and it was good, cranking the engine over

well, that's a problem. May not be your only one, but that voltage is low from the alternator. But before we conclude that, when you say "about" that make me nervous. Are you reading from a voltmeter, or just the dash gauge? You need a voltmeter, which eliminates the "about" part...

So all of the fuses were continuous. What was the voltage at that fuse? Did all of the internal accessories return when it started? How long did it idle while revving high? Have you been able to reproduce starting or did you stop after that time?
