I assume by the V8 that it's a Grand Cherokee? Not a Cherokee?

Who's working on it? Do they have a manual of any sort? It's hard to diagnose something with rather limited info.

When all the power comes on and then dies when you turn the key tells me that there isn't a good enough connection to the battery.

This is not what you want.

Clean the connections up. Crud is not conductive.

Not an Indiana thing, just one tired, frustrated, irritated, stumped person and spelling is the last of my worries at this time but I will go back to the connections and see is it is resolved.
