CA RX7 cranking but will not start

Hey, I just went to go turn on my rx7 today and for some reason it would just not want to turn on. It has been running perfectly fine, last time having it on was yesterday and even the day before that.

Also when I go to turn the key I noticed that none of the lights on the dash seem to be turning on for some reason. Usually once its in ACC all the lights turn on and im getting nothing at all but the car is still cranking but just not turning over and starting.

My car is an automatic btw if that helps.

Please let me know! HELP MUCH NEEDED!

Check the main 120A fuse on your positive terminal that connects to the battery. Exact thing happened to me and it was this.

If this is fine, check to see if your getting fuel, spark etc. There is a chance, your engine could be flooded.

What lights do you normally see on the dash?

It does sound like the main fuse
