Default 2001 Escape XLT Just died. No crank and no start

  1. I have a 2001 Escape XLT with the 3.0l and an automatic transmission.
    I let my sister use my car to go to a doctors appointment and on her way home she said that the car just lost power. Would not accelerate or anything and came to a stop. I knew the alternator was going out and I assumed that it was that. We tried to jump it and it cranked a few times and then nothing after that. I towed it home replaced the alternator and put a new battery in it and the car just clicks now. Will not start. I was thinking maybe a relay went out so I swapped some around and still the same thing happens. Just clicks. I was thinking maybe the theft system isn’t recognized my key so I tried to reset the theft system but still the same click. Now check engine or any warning lights at all. I can’t figure it out. Please help

Until we check , it is pretty difficult to say exactly what is wrong. Check all the fuses.
I would suggest you check the connections at the fuse panels, both under the hood and inside the vehicle.Make sure the connections from the battery that go to the fuse panels are good and clean and tight.
It sounds like power just was interrupted to just about everything. A poor ground connection can produce the same symptoms..
