When we started the durango, the AC & power windows wouldn't work, then I shut the car off, and it wouldn't start again. I replaced the 50 amp starter/ignition fuse, and it burnt 3 of them in a row. And now it won't start. But the interior lights and the radio works. Please help! :(

There is a starter relay in the power distribution box that I would check first. Sometime there is one similiar that you can swap it with.

My husband swapped the relay and it still burnt the fuses. He said he was going to have the battery tested next. Would this be your next move?

Sorry, I'm at work.
I would next disconnect the driver's power lock switch as it is tied into the ignition, then try it.
