Post subject: engine doesnt turn over - headlights work, turn signals dont
|

ok, i have a 97-98 dodge stratus, and this evening upon taking my leave from work I go to start my car to leave, and at first the key would turn in the ignition, but the engine would not turn... i kept trying and eventually the engine turned and revved up for half a second only to shut off again, this time taking out my cd player, heater, turn signals and windshield wipers..
basically all i have left is my headlights, dashboard and interior lights..
some people are thinking it was a starter problem, or perhaps the ignition switch...
anybody have any ideas? anything is helpful

Sounds like a bad ground between the battery and engine. When you
started the engine the other ground connections could not handle the
current and got fried.
