Battery died and now check engine line is coming on

Asked by GuruDDBQC Aug 16, 2017 at 08:22 AM about the 2007 Saturn VUE Base

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Just bought my daughter this car 3 days ago.  She had a
dead battery last night, took it to autozone after we
jumped it, and they said the battery and alternator are
fine.  Started up perfect this morning but by the time my
daughter got to school the check engine light was on.  I'm
worried it won't start again.  Any suggestions on what to
check?  Thank you

Pull the positive terminal off battery and see if it Sparks as you touch it. If it does something inside the car is draining the battery. Some like an aftermarket radio

Took ()4) Garages and finally foun one to get into the nuts and bolts on it. after all the wire chasing etc the fuse box has a circuit board on the underneath of it . any tho the fuse box looks good remove fuses take fuse box out and flip over. Mine was burnt. Found out that moisture does get to them Hope that helps can get 1 from a junk yard for around $150.00
