I turned off the engine and when i went to start it up again i am not getting any power to the engine or the radio. lights, power windows, locks, gauges and warning lights on the dash as well as the head lights and turn signals all work fine. changed the battery but is still having the same problem.
The starter relay is on a module conected to the radio relay....the starter must be cold when starting or it will not start in this problem on this vehicle....in other words you have a bad starter relay.:)
Hi,
I recommend you to check you fuse box, one of your fuses might be blown.
Good luck,
Eitan.
SOURCE: car wont start radio,wipers,gauges,turn signals dont work
Check the battery cable ends to be sure they are tight and wont twist, I had this happen on my 96 grand caravan two years ago.
SOURCE: my gauges stay lit up
"{when I turned the headlights back on the gauges immediately went to zero reading}" =-------- First by pass the head light switch and check.May be its getting short and causing the dash to not function properly.------ Another possibility is weak alternator.The alternator controls the charging system of the car.If the alternator is weak then it will cause problem to the battery and due to this the head lights will get dim.-------- If all checked ok, then other possibility is bad ground connection to gauges or headlight switch.----------Recheck ground wires and its connection.May be its connection getting loose causing the problem.----dash gauges are controlled via a RED/BLACK wire ( same as the parking brake wire ) and is (+) trigger. You can find it at the fuse box or at the top left plug on the back of the instrument cluster.--------- This will help.Thanks helpmech.

Usually answered in minutes!
We have a 1999 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer Edition and the same thing happens to us! We can drive it a few minutes and turn it off and it will be okay but if you drive it more than 15 min., turn it off and then come back a little later and try to turn it on it will not start and the radio will not either. The lights and everything else works. It takes 2-3 hours before it will start again. We have checked the fuses and relays but are not sure what we are looking for. Please help.
same as above
When
The engin does not turn over (nothing), but all lights and even the steering tilt works. I had this problem from day one but nobody could figure it out.
having the same problem talked to two mechanics and they said that it was the ignition switch we are getting ready to put one in on wed let you know if it worked
my truck wont start all the lights come on including the radio but when u turn the key nothing happens the next day i tried to start it again and the battery was died and it wont hold a charge at all
My truck was having the same problems with the battery draining and i replaced the battery, and the alternator. i was going to replace the starter and starter solenoid unit but there is a starter solenoid switch/relay on the firewall next to the battery that was grounding out, so i replaced it and i never had the problem again.
engine wont turn over and vehicle lost all electronics while driving. feels like its a fuse or fuel fuse.
I HAVE SIMILAR PROBLEM, BUT I GET NO POWER ANY WHERE IN THE CAB, OR THE LIGHTS ON THE OUTSIDE, NOT EVEN HAZARD LIGHTS TURN ON
