After two weeks the car is now totally dead ( no lights, no horn, no nothing, etc.) in the driveway. The car is also locked in park. Battery has pelnty of juice. Any ideas? DanD Veteran / Moderator Oct 10, 2006, 11:37 AM Post #2 of 4 (1308 views) Re: Totally Dead Sign In Check the main fuses in the under hood fuse relay center. How do you know that the Battery has lots of juice? Have you tried boosting the car? Dan. Canadian "EH" Poppy New User Oct 10, 2006, 11:41 AM Post #3 of 4 (1306 views) Re: Totally Dead Sign In Yes, we tried jumper cables and still totaly dead. I know the battery has a lot of juice because you can hook a jumber cable to one post and tap the other - you get big sparks.

It sparks when you tap on it??
