I drove my car yesterday and it was fine and last night I left my interior light on for about 30 mins to an 1jr not for sure how long it was exactly but I know it was at least 30 and today when I went to start it it would turn over but wouldn't start. I did get it to start once after holding the key for about 15 seconds and when I turned it off and tried to start it again it would still turn over but would not start so I didn't know if maybe my battery was just a little low and that's what is causing it not to start

If you were able to crank it for 15 seconds, the battery sounds fine. I really don't see how this is related to the interior light being left on. Tell me, when you crank it, does it sound normal or seen to turn slower than normal? If it seems normal, have you checked for spark and fuel to the engine?
