crazy stuff going on

Alright so i've had my battery checked, and it is fine. But I am having a weird wiring problem. When my key is in and turned one click forward my car has full power. when turned to the on position all interior lights turn off. My brake lights do not turn on, and neither do my headlights or city lights high beams etc... I checked fuses and didn't see anything going on with those. Has anyone ever had this problem.

well today i got the problem figured out. Of course first I tried another battery, and my car still didn't turn over so naturally i pulled the starter which is a PITA. Then had it tested... It was good. Had my battery tested again. It was good. But wait the corrosion on the terminal needed to be cleaned.... So i didn't drive my car for a week becasue the damn battery posts needed to be cleaned, and the positive/negative cables needed to be cleaned up. I felt like an idiot.

Moral of the story always check the stupid stuff first, and if you have similar symptoms check your battery connections.
