Car won't start....fuse possibly? Help.

[FutureGSXOwner]

I just searched for the answer to my issue but I can't find anything. I just recently installed a Duralast battery about a month ago. The car was starting just fine. The car sat for about three days and I went to start it last night, turned the key to start it, electric powered up for like two seconds and then boom, everything went off. The car doesn't crank at all. No electric, no nothing. I'm guessing it's a fuse. Does anyone know which fuse could've went bad here? I'm hoping this isn't a bad alternator. My roomate (former dsm owner) told me it's probably the "battery fuse". Does this sound accurate?

Have you checked your connection at the battery terminals?
It's not uncommon for our cars to develop a bad connection for absolutely no reason. Works fine for months, then with no logical reason, you go to start the car one day, dash lights up, turn the key to engage the starter and click.... everything is dead. Same thing you just described.

Check your fuse box for blown fuses. I don't remember which one exactly to look for but if one of them is blown, it'll be there.

Will do, I'll update this thread after I check the fusebox and terminal connections.

Smart guy. The moron that installed my battery didn't tighten the positive terminal properly. Resolved. Thanks for the help and swift replies.

i already checked the + and the - on the battery so im hoping it's just a fuse ..

Go through them all, take them all out and make sure the right fuse is in there. The kid who owned my old car before me messed all the wiring up so I had to rewire my entire car because of it, and my new car was missing a fuse.
