so last night im at work and i go to start my car its stars runs for half a second then dies i turn the key, no dice i notice that the radio and my gauges arent light either. i check the fuse from my battery (its in the trunk) the 100 amp fuse was blown so i disconnect the + cable from the battery and hook and bypass ther fuse. i go to connect the + cable and the second i touch the battery it looks like im welding. so i talk to a friend of mine and he says that starters sometime ground themselves out and cause the battery to spark like that. so i leave it for the night and go back to work. this morning i change the 30 amp fusible link for the ignition under the hoodand check the fuses in the drivers kick panel and nmone are blown reconect the battery leaving the starter wire off. i turn the key and still no power. i checked the power with a voltmeter the ignition and it gets 12.75Vwhen i turn the key it gets 11.46V in and puts 11.36V out but i still dont get any power. i have no clue what to do im thinking if taking it to a mechanic if i dont figure this out soon.
