Everything shut down

I suppose it could be a short. Maybe some wire in the area of the transmission lever switch and the ignition. I'll have to look in that area. Thanks for the suggestion.

A number of years ago I had the clockspring replaced, I think that is in the same area of steering wheel. Something piched there and related?

By the way, my dome light can be turned on when the dash/ignition is dead. That's on a different circuit from the dash. Seems to prove some power is getting through to other parts of the car.

I fixed it. The problem deteriorated to the point that the car would never start or have power to the dash. Only the relays would buzz (door open relay).

I decided to clean the battery terminals and cable clamps with a brush. That fixed it immediatley.

Lesson learned: Clean the battery terminals/cables clamps first even if they don't look corroded for odd electrical problems (especially buzzing ignition-off relays). It is simple to do as a first step.

If I had had a solid constant no power condition, I would have removed the battery cables earlier to check/test battery and discovered this fix earlier, but the marginal battrey connection fooled me. Ignition-off relays like door-open buzzed because they were apparently not getting enough voltage/current due to poor battery connection. Of course dash and ignition didn't have enough juice to power on either. Transmission lever temporary fix above must have somehow changed load on battery enough to get juice flowing - further distracting me from the real fix.

Thought you would like the confirmed happy ending (seems like few posters ever come back to confirm the fix).

With the key in the on position (engine not started)
every system is working Radio, windows, turn signals,

after starting the engine no Radio, windows do not work, abs light on, turn signals slow

any ideas thank you

My battery was bad and I jumped started the vehicle. I reved the engine to charge the battery. During reving everything shut off. Afterward the car would not start at all, and I think there was no electrical to anything (happened a few months ago).

I suspect some (and hope) some sort of main fuse was blown but can't seem to find one.

Thank you.

Thanks.

I have no codes. The battery is definitely bad and needs replaced. But while the car was running I reved the engine and imediately everything died. In an instant it went from running to having ho electrical power to anything. Not the ignitiion, door locks, lights, etc.

Thanks. If I can't find a main fuse to look at I'll start my trouble shooting with a new battery. I'll also continue trying to even see if the is a such thing as a main battery fuse so I can at least take a look at it.

Thank you for you help.
