I bought a 2007 Pontiac G5 less than a month ago and have been having issues with it starting. We bought a brand new battery, replaced the starter, and replaced the ignition switch. 2 days ago it just wouldn’t start at all, just a single click when I turned the key but it still has power to everything. We towed it to a shop where they looked over everything and told me that the fuse box needs to be replaced which I would need to take it to the GM dealership to do. Does this sound right? Do fuse boxes just go bad and can make the car not start? ---

The fuse box is most likely far more than just that . . . it’s quite possible the fuse box is also a control module Don’t know if something on the circuit board is bad . . . such as a bad solder joint, resistor, etc. . . . or maybe a software problem I’ve seen fuse boxes fail, causing some strange problems. Without knowing the nature of the fuse box’s problem, and exactly what the diagnosis was, I can’t offer anything more ---

This sounds like the type of symptoms a car that’s been underwater at some point would have…
