Electrical problem
1997 Pontiac Firebird 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

My Firebird wont start!
When i turn the key, all the lights and horn work, but no lights in the dash, and the starter won't engage. I have checked all the fuses and relays, but they appear to be fine. Battery is fully charged aswell..

Does anyone have any ideas? had similar problems??

any help would be deeply appreciated!

hello, you might have to check the feed to and from the ignition switch? Your theft system could have an effect on your starter circuit, but, I didn't think it would effect your dash lites. The small purple wire at the starter solenoid should be hot, with the key in the crank position.
