If you installed a stero system make sure the amp is not on all the time. Other than that try testing the starter and components.

2007 jeep wrangler won't start have power, but won't turn over hear a clicking in fuse box. any suggestions?

battery is dead.
check fuses, the clicking is the starter relay that is its job is to click.
but if it rattles that means low battery

what we do is a AAA jumper of battery, jump start battery with a donor car. if it starts now. then.
1: the battery was only discharged , so charge it.
2: or if it repeats the battery is bad. OR
3: if the voltage is not 13.3 to 15v running the alternator is shut down.

easy huh, just 3 checks.

It's possible but unlikely. Still sounds like your battery is shot, and if so, jumping it may not work. First I would take it out and get it tested. If OK, your next step would be to check error codes (DTCs) with a code reader to see what's going on.

You have a possible issue with the voltage regualtor inside of your alternator.
You can drive to Autozone & have them test for under voltage & overvoltage condition, appears to be a voltage regulator failing.

We have over 20 inches of snow, i drove in it, while diving i saw my bat hand go to 0, now today its 3 degrees outside and its will not start, when i jump it it starts after about 10 clicks, what could be...

If your battery gauge went to zero whilst driving it sounds like your alternator stopped charging. Either the alternator itself failed or you chewed a fan belt. If you jump started it, and the battery light stays on or the gauge still reads zero then that would confirm the above.
Driving or running the car without alternator charge will simply run the battery to zero. it will be quite hard to even jump start after that.
Check for broken,lost belt and get it running again and watch the gauge/batt light. If its on, its not charging, if its off then you most likely have a battery going bad.

I parked my jeep and when I went to start it up the gauges and lights came on but would not turn over, after a jump it finally started and shut off a restart resulted in a clicking sound, not sure whats...

Either your battery is being drained by something, the battery itself is bad, or, the alternator isn't charging the battery properly. First check that the cables that connect to it are clean and secure, then check voltage and charging rates. Many parts stores will do that free, hoping they can supply you with what you need. If it's still got the original factory battery it's a good bet that may be the problem.

94 Jeep Grand Cherokee will not start

Sounds like the inline fuse popped. It is located in the wire that comes from the alternator to the battery. The alternator is sending out the juice, but it can't make it to the battery. I sincerely hope that this gets you on the road again. Best wishes and God Bless.
