Fusible link 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE

Was running fine , was parked for 3 weeks and battery went flat.   Have tried jumping it but it only cranks and wont turn over.   I realized that fusible link leading from positive battery cable doesnt have a fuse in it...perhaps I knocked it out when I first tried to jump it...could that be my problem, if so, what fuse would I replace it with?
Thanks!

Jeep got rid of Fusible links by 1999. All the fuses that in the past would be Fusible Links are now in the Power Distribution Center in the engine, as Maxi-Fuses. However you could have an after market modification that would include a Fusible Link. That said, make sure you have a good charge on the battery before starting, it doesn't seem like a big deal....but it could make a difference.

Fusible link wire is a fuse in itself.
You would have to go to the auto parts store and get a replacement.
The amp. rating is stamped on the wire.

Jeep Grand Cherokee Diesel CRD 2.7. Where is the alarm fuse on it please?

Question edited for clarity.
Question moved to model category.

The security alarm and engine immobilizer are functions of the Body Control Module (BCM) and the ECM. You can't just pull fuses. When the battery goes completely flat, or is disconnected, you just need to reset the Security System which is done via the Remote Fob.

My sons1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee had the gauges light on and would not start like battery was dead. Had it jump started and it started.When he put in park it stalled jumped again and worked.

Sounds like a charging system problem and the alternator may not be working. The gauge light will come on if the charging gauge is showing low so you will look at the gauges. Have the battery and charging system tested

It sounds like a loose wire to the starter, check the wiring going to the starter for any corrosion, breaks and make sure all the bolts and nuts are tight.

Try cheking the starter connections, the battery to motor ground, battery to body ground and motor to body ground strap for corrosion. They can be corroded under the bolts and cause all kinds of electrical problems.
