    You replaced the engine yourself? Or someone else? Battery status? How long has it been since the car first broke down and needed a new engine? Find out as much as you can about the status of your batteries and how to improve their status...

    I would go over every plug that was taken off and reinstalled during the repair, and check them for tight and clean connectors, no damaged pins, and no pinched or loose wires. If this was in an accident, there might be some damage to the wiring elsewhere.
