2003 EVO car completey turned off after sharp turn

last night after i made a sharp right turn at 30 mph, the anti lock break poped up and 3 seconds later the whole car turned off... everything that doesn't require the key works (head lights, dome lights), the key when turned one notch (to turn on electronics in the ) nothing happens, as if no power to the car, and the 3rd notch of the key, no crank , no check engine light no anti lock light..windows dont work.. me and 2 other friends had to push to the car 5 blocks to my house...

car has viper alarm, but it is disable i unlock and lock the car with just the key (because the alarm the sensitive to sound and goes off, thats why i leave the viper off)

car has arc sard fuel regulator, downpipe, exhaust, walbro fuel pump, ivy tune, stock cams, not that all these could be linked to the problem... i called up my mechanic on the phone when it happened, he said it may be a electric problem like some kinda fuse poped, or bad wiring...

i dunno what to do!! helpp!!!!!

check ur main fuses or relays under the hood....check to make sure u didnt damage any abs sensors which couldve triggered the ABS light, also check the fuse for the viper alarm system, have heard stories about fuses or relays on those systems popping and the whole car wont start....good luck

When you turn the key in the on position do you hear the fuel prime? You have a Walbro do hear the fuel pump at all?

This definately sounds like a blown fuse. Ive had a similar thing happen to me in another car.

Thanks guys for quick response, it was fuse # 40 , the ignition fuse, since it was dark at night i couldn't see it until this afternoon. Now its about rewiring the car because theres probably some bad wiring connections thats blowing that fuse when i make extreme sharp right turns
