Turn the ignition wire tap tap tap tap tap lights came on. Turn the ignition again while charging battery with another vehicle now nothing works; no lights, no noise no clicking, no engine start.

This could be a couple issues but we need to start with checking the battery. The fact that you had to jump it to get it to click then we need to most likely replace the battery. Here is a guide on how to load test the battery:

If the battery checks out then here is the next guide that we need to run through in order to start to figure this out:

Let's start with this and go from there. Thanks
