Unhappy engine cranks, starts and running but no electrical power
hi there.. I have a car, its a Ford Escape 2009 XLT , my car engine starts and running, but the car has no electrical power - the dashboard is off, stereo is off, no indoor lights, no headlights, no taillights, no breaklights, no signal lights, hazard is off, no power windows, unlock/lock is not working, even the remote is not working, when i try to shift the gear to DRIVE, it wont move, so it is now only at Parking Gear. However, the wiper (front and rear) works fine, the power seat (driver) is fine.. advice please?? Thank you and hoping to hear from you guys with knowledge about car..

I don't know about the knowledge thing, but did you check all the fuses? Those in the car and those under the hood.

Unfortunately all vehicles are not the same. Most of the time there is more than one fuse or even a relay involved. What does the fuse/relay section of your owner's manual show?
