Check and clean battery connections and alternator connections to make sure they are tight and free of oxidation . If that does not help have system load tested. Sounds like you will need a new alternator and possibly a battery.

I would check your fuse board for a loose fuse or wire to it from the battery as sometimes vibration loosens terminals eric

SOURCE: Electrical problem

I just had the same issues. No headlights, interior lights, power door locks, radio controls on steering wheel, or dash lights. Pulled every fuse in cab and under hood, not a one was bad. I disconnected the battery terminals for a few minutes. When I reconnected them every thing was working.

Try checking under hood in power distribution box for blown fuses also, or bad connection to it.

SOURCE: lights flicker

Have any of you guys checked the battery to see if it is charged enough and holding a charge. To do this check you need to use a voltage tester and the reading should be around 12.4 volts. If not make sure the battery is full with distilled water and then charge the battery.

Next you need to immediatly check to see if the alternator is charging the system adequately. If not replace it before you kill the battery again.

Also clean the terminals on the battery and on the connectors even if they don't look like they need it.

If the battery still dies you may need to replace the battery because it lost its ability to keep an adequate charge.

2000 Dodge Intrepid, when I turn on the car the lights flicker but it won't turn over. no clicking sound. The cd player starts making noises.

It sounds like the battery is flat, this could be because the alternator has not charged it or something has drained the battery or the battery is faulty! What lights are flickering? We're any dash lights on prior to you not being able to start the car?

2000 Dodge Intrepid Interior Lights work sporadically

Probably a faulty door switch or loose door. Check which door appears to stick out past rest of body more than others, or try pushing in on doors & see which one appears loosest, and adjust striker to tighten it up a bit, and see if that cures it.

Hard to move Gear Shifter in a 2000 Dodge Intrepid ES

I had the same problem after my car went into a transmission shop for some service. This might be the solution, it was with my car. Check the transmission shift cable. When mine finally failed, it was filled with rust.
You may be able to simply lubricate it somehow with something like WD40, but I'm not sure if it would work. If all else fails, you can have the shift cable replaced, which is what I had to do with my car after driving it for 2 years with that problem. By then I had worn out and warped the shifter and had to replace that too, as well as drive it around for a week without being able to get the transmission into park.
Good luck! If you have to take it to a shop, just tell them that your shift cable is going bad and you want them to make sure.

I have a 2000 Dodge Intrepid that will not start unless I have an external 12v power supply hooked up to it. The battery is only 3 months old. After getting it started the battery indicator comes on and...

How many volts do you have when before you try to start your car? It seems as if your battery is not holding a charge, being that you are getting enough volts to charge the battery. I would check the fluid level inside the battery and fill it up with distilled water if needed. Also it wouldn't hurt to clean the battery terminals and wire connectors. Also make sure that the connection is at the top of the terminal and not the bottom (nearest the battery casing).
