FYI...A blown GAUGE fuse will prevent the car from starting!
So I was replacing my turn signal socket and I forgot to disconnect the battery before I cut the wiring and as soon as I cut em the headlights went down and almost cut my arm off lol. So I finished up my splicing and went to start the car and it wouldn't even try to start. It looked like I had a completely dead battery but I defnitely did not. I had power to the radio and I could hear the fuel pump priming but no gauge light or crank at all. I looked it up and luckily someone posted something about their GAUGE fuse in the dash fusebox blowing and preventing the car from starting. Sure enough that's exactly what it was and everything was kosher after I switched out the fuse with a new one. Just thought I'd let everyone know if they have the same problem. Next time I'll make sure to disconnect the battery before I go cutting wires. lol
