Check all the fuses in your engine compartment. On the drivers side, close to the battery. Maybe you have a bad Main Relay? Also located on the drivers side between the strut tower and the firewall. Im not sure what all the main relay does, but it 'sounds' important...

Did you see the other recent thread???

Bad / loose engine ground
Bad / loose battery terminals
Bad starter

If the car was sitting around for over a week (especially in high humidity areas), an old starter tends to "stick".

Do your headlights go up and down in a regular fashion and are the lights bright?

When the key is to ON do your fuel and volt gauges move.

Do your turn signals work.

Do your idiot light light up.

All of the above HAVE to be answered, not just one or two of the above.
