I have a 2001 Hyundai Elantra, manual. A few months ago the car was jump started four times in a short amount of time. Since then, there is a problem sometimes when you go to start the car it just clicks; have to keep trying it until it starts. Since then some of the fuses keep blowing. Where do I start to look for the problem? Not sure if the jump start has anything to do with the problems now.

start by cleaning the battery terminals and having ithe battery tested for condition including load test. auto parts tire stores do this for free if fuseskeep blowing then find out the circuit and see if you can see the problem like a wire bad etc.
