My wife went to move my car. She put the key in the ignition and turned it. She said the lights came on and then before she turned further to start, all lights went out. I went to check and everything is out. No lights, no power, no locks, no nothing. The battery is only about 1 year old, but even when you turn the key, nothing. It is like the battery has been removed, but all connections are intact. Is there a fuse or relay thast could cause this problem?

The power distribution center under the hood has the main fuse. And the PCM power relay is there as well. Beside the battery you have the stater solenoid, and attached to that are the fusible links, if one of those melted, yu loose power too....
