Wierd electrical problem, won't start.
Please help if anyone knows anything I can try. So, the battery us charged, Volt meter says 12.4v. The battery connections are fine. What happens is when I turn the key to start it, there is a click and all the electric shuts off. I go to the battery, turn the connector a little and it comes back on. Go to start it, and as soon as I go to turn the engine over it all shuts off. Repeat. It is not a bad connection because the electricity only shuts off when I turn the engine over. Never had any problem
Beforer, starter has always been fine. You can turn the ignition to on, all lights, everything works but when you go to turn the engine over, there is a click and all electricity shuts off. Fuses all look fine as far as I see. My jeep is stuck in the parking lot at work so I would love to be able to go get it lol. Only other thing is radio doesn't work now. Idk if that's related.
