I pulled out of my driveway without letting my jeep warm up good. I got to the stop sign and the jeep died. I tried to restart and it wouldnt even crank. I have no power to anything. The battery is good, not sure why it wont start. Also when key is off some stereo lights r staying on but when u turn key on they go off
