I went to start it and would not start, nothing. I thought is was my battery because I had no power elsewhere. Tried to jump it off and got some power to head/tail lights, one dash light and windows, but still would not turn over. Tried putting on charger for 24 hours and still same thing. Checked fuses and found the ignition fuel starter fuse to be burnt out. Replaced it and tried to start it and it clicked 4 times but never started. I did get all dash lights that time. Went to start it again and nothing, no clicking or anything - and back to only one dash light. REplaced it again and on start up saw the fuse burn out. Now, my top wont work, the thing on the dash that tells the temp outside, windshield wipers, and I only have one dash light. PLEASE HELP!!! Mad

Make sure the fuse it is getting replaced with is rated. There is some kind of surge for the fuse to be "burning out" If it was just blowing, thats a different story. Try putting a higher amped fuse in, try 10 more amps to see what happens. I am still on a side note thinking its your battery. Although it was charged and boosted, it still may have a problem. Might wanna get that checked too.

The battery is only 4 months old. It is a 20 amp fuse, which is what we replaced it with. Could it be a relay or something else that is burning it out?
