No dome lights. With key on - no instruments, no power windows, no dome lights, no radio. Will not turn engine over. Put jumper wire on solenoid - engine will turn over, but will not start because of no control power to starting circuit. Relay? Fuse?

If its cranking over and will not start look for fuel and spark-do below

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine atleast 3/16 away from ground-have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, coil's resistances, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
