ok it all started the other day when im leaving work my radio keeps randomly turning off along with all my lights flickering so i take my radio off and drive home the rest of the way fine...when i get home i fix all my ground wires because ive had this problem before and that was what it was...but this time i start my car and it almost sounds as if something is sparking...i pick up my g/f and when i get home i tell her to see if she can see any sparks....when i start the car it sounds like i over started it but i really didn't... so i turn it off and then everything just goes off and now my car has no power at all.... what can it be?

i think it might be my battery is shot and not recharging cause it has died like 5 times due to me leaving my headlights on 8(

pretty much everything on the engine is new i have a 91 4door with Dpfi to mpfi Dohc ZC wiring all done by myself

any help will be much appreciated TY

 

By the sounds of it might be an alternator or electrical problem

 

ya the alternator is fairly new only had it for about a month and now everytime i take the ground off and put it back on i hear something ticking turning on or something so something has power but nothing on my car goes on

 

all my fuses are fine too

 

the clicking im hearing is my dash turning on i believe because its coming from behind my radio and ac controls im hoping its a bad battery cause i know after it dies so many times it can go to sh*t

 

Jump it take it to Autozone and have them do a load test and battery check, that will tell you a lot for free without getting dirty.

 

it won't jump..... tried my friend's battery and nothing the clicking is coming from a black box behind my dash anyone have any ideas? i am running out of things to check were looking for a loose wire or something right now

 

anyone have any idea what this can be? main relay?

 

Yes, that does sound like it could be a main relay problem. Or possibly a solenoid gone bad?

does sound like a solenoid gone bad but which one. The main relay is more easy to detect since it wont power the fuel pump if its bad.
