I have my underplastics off because I was trying to locate an oil leak. We had a good rain and I drove to school then work, no issues.
When I go to leave work, i turn the car to the "on" position, and then it just turns off. Like someone disconnected the battery. Now I can't get power to it. it wont pop start either. I'm thinking something got wet that wasn't supposed to.... what do we think guys? -------------------- The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far as is needed? |

check the fuses, you probably did short something, but it shouldnt have shorted that easily. look for damaged or bare wires or loose connectors.

ok i checked the fuses and they all look fine. Now the thing thats kind weird is I have no power to ANYTHING
I cant beep my alarm, lock the doors... when I turn the key to the "on" position, absolutely nothing happens.(ya know, normally the radio would come on and the idiot lights on the dash, but right now, nothing) I forgot to check the ones under the dash tho, i didnt think they would be my issue, but ill check them anyway, and give another look at the other ones. -------------------- The question is not how far.

If you have no power to anything, forget under the dash.
Check the large fuses in the main relay block. They've got a clear top and look like boxes, they're not thin like normal fuses. -------------------- |
