92 Eagle Talon Electrical problems	Sign In

1992 Eagle Talon, 1.6 DOHC Turbo, 250,000 miles. Car died, wouldn't start until we put jumper cables on, as soon as a cable was disconnected the car would die, put the cable back on and it would run off other vehicle. Pulled the Alternator, had it tested, it failed. Put new Alternator on and now not much works, only lights, door chime, and dome light. No other dash warning lights work, radio does not work, nor does the heater fan. Checked all fuses and fusable links, they are ok. Tried to jump and push start the car and there is no fire. We replaced the battery about a week before the car died because there was a problem with it, After putting Alternator I even tried to switch batteries, nothing is working. Could this be in the ignition switch? Please help, I am lost. Thank you in advance for your help.

Check all your main fuses/fusible links first. Then check the battery connections for any small wires that you neglected to hook back up.

Checked all fuses, and fusable links, checked for loose wires, replaced the ignition switch, still nothing. Could this be in a relay?
