In addition to both answers, sounds like a dead battery, if you drove five miles, the battery is not holding the charge which is generated by the alternator..

What are fuse 8 n 9 connected to?? Did you replace blown fuses? What model, year, make, engine etc?

In addition to Andrew's answer; check the age of your battery as they do not last forever. If a Walmart/Autozone, etc. battery, then they are typically good for 2 years and rapidly fail often without any warning.
Check the condition of your battery cables. They should be clean and completely free of corrosion (and that means the cables - not just the connectors, as battery acid can leach through the plastic cable wrap as if it were a hose).
Remove and clean all cable connections: Negative to ground if at frame, and frame to engine block (sometimes two different cables). Positive to power distribution box and to battery (again may be two different cables).
If all that is good, and it still acts up after charging, then suspect a dead or dying battery. FYI - the charging system can be tested for free at Autozone, Advance, or any other Auto parts store for free.
Best regards,

SOURCE: 2001 Chrysler starting problem

fuses are'nt linked to startor that's a relay as I have mine ran to a car-PC with voice start. ANyhow you would need to look up in owners book fuse location chart. What fuse socket that keeps blowing runs to, my guess is it blows before you start car as soon as your ignition goes to accessory then it kicks on that fuse bank. DO NOT STICK BIGGER FUSE IN AS THIS COULD CAUSE FIRE. first find out what that fuse controls.. is it the fuel system, radio, PCM ect.. could be a ignition fuse but these tend to be bigger what size is the fuse you blow?

SOURCE: 98 Chrysler Sebring 2.5 6cyl wont start. engine wont even turn

check to make sure your starter bolts not loose or 1 fell out. your starter drive pinion gear is broken or the fly wheel is broken. take the starter to advance auto or auto zone to check it out . buy a fly wheel dropping the tranny to have it put on going to cost you .good luck.

SOURCE: My 2004 Chrysler Pacifica won't start.

Try grounding the engine, they may have moved, removed, or broken the ground straps.

Take a jumper cable from the black(NEG) post to a bolt or clean piece of metal on the the engine.
And see if it starts.

Also check the connection at the starter, in case they had it disconnected during the repair.

Hope this helps.

Car wont start totally dead lights and power work no radio though

Check fuse # 8 -20 amp and look for the starter relay. The fuses and relays are in a black box under the hood near battery. The lid of the box will tell you every fuse and relay. There should be a spare fuse in the box or take one from another circuit and try to start the car0996b43f8022dd2d.gif

My car will turn over but not start. I can hear the pump working. I've put gas in the tank, but the gauge still reflects empty. Also, my gear shifter won't engage. What could this be?

Check the fuse box under the hood. You're looking for a 10amp fuse. On the under side of the lid of the fuse box is a diagram showing what each fuse does. I just had the same problem and after putting in a new battery ( which it needed anyway) and having it towed to a service station, the mechanic called and said the 10amp fuse under the hood was bad. That was all that was wrong. I even checked the fuses before calling for the tow truck, but I couldn't see any bad ones. I think the key to this repair was that the fuel gauge wasn't working even though you knew definitely that there was gas in the car!

My 2002 pt cruiser wont starts and it act likes the battery is dead, but it isnt. what could be the problem?

check battery connections1st check all fuses under dash and under hood in the black box. it will have main fuses in the one under the hood. next is the starter itself, with the key on and headlights on, when you turn key to start, do headlights go dim? pointing to bad starter if not. are you sure the transmission is in the park position? have you added a security to your car lately? try manually with a key to lock and unlock the doors. has your car been stored for a long time? the computer may have to be flased by the dealer, cost$85.00 and tow in. hope this helps and thank you for choosing fixya.com

My 1990 Cadillac Deville wont start or engage starter

Sounds like you blew fuse. Fix fuse and borrow a car starting switch they use at car repair shops. As long as you can turn tumbler to on ,you can start using the starting switch from repair shop..There should be a way to run a start button to start car and your off/on key should be OK
