Ok here it is my car doesn't switch on when I turn the key.
But everything else works, light trun on when I switch them on, and other lights on the interior work like head light and door lights. So can anyone help me with this problem. Remember nothing clicks on when I turn the key, all fuses are good (under dash and under hood) and battery is charged. So if anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Check your main relay, It's a retangular shiney box between your trailing coil and firewall. Make sure you didn't burn that out somehow.
I guess start there.

I'm still not getting anything like I said when I turn on the lights they turn on and when I open the door the door lights turn on, everything directly connected to the battery works. The thing is that when I turn the key on the gauges dont come on like to show fuel level and temperature, and the car doesnt click or turn over its like the ignition isnt getting any power when I turn the key. Checked all fuses and they are good under dash and under hood all are good. I cant find out what the hell is goin on and I tried all above and its still not working. Need Help.....Any help will be appreciated....Thanks members of RX7Club
are you positive that the fuses are good?? because not to long ago i had the same prblem exactly wat ur talkin about, but for some reason i over looked the 80 amp fuse under the hood. and that was the problem. check again, it would hurt.

Yea I was just out and and i checked all the fuses they are good. It's kinda getting me mad cuz I can't find the problem. Anyone else might know whats goin on????
Ignition switches tend to get loose, then mushy, then die on the FC around 105K miles. If you been hanging a heavy ring of keys off the switch, deduct another 15K miles.
Good luck.
Good luck.
had same problem, or very similar.. turned out to be a bad groud from battery terminal to wherever the hell it goes, being the ground i said screw it, cut the bastard down an bolted it to the frams.. voila. your results may vary.
