Old and tired engine. 2.7, I would assume. Charge the battery and post the codes. Changing the valve seals only keeps it from smoking at start up. Burns the oil from the cylinders. If it smoked all the time it was the piston rings. Common on the 2.7 engines. Find another car.
I had a 2001 dodge stratus R/T. My mirror auto dim, digital compass and temp screen, and aux power outlet blew out because I had a power inverter plugged in and tried run something to required to much power. I was just a simple fuse. Go to the fuse box inside the car, not under the hood and check the small diagram on the cover and replace the required fuse. Good Luck.
Check the fuel shutoff valve. to see if it is on. press the reset button to do this. if it stays on. The answer could be pinched wires (a short) from the fuse wiring back towards the shutoff valve. if the valve shuts off try checking for current with a test light. if no current . The valve is bad. it seems like a short or open circuit on the fuel system wiring.
Find the wires that were run from the engine , disconnect your battery and the remove all the wires and fuses attached to the system. After you do that and secure all lose wires, reconnect your battery and you should beable to start your car again.
