yep thats rite.  
i turned my key to acc then i heard my fuel pump,everything come on proper, then DEAD. headlights work everything works…the only thing that wont happin is my car wont crank and none of my acc work.

now here is the problem

when i bought the car, the previous owner had put a hud dash and display and window in it, now somewhere along the lines of him/her fucking up the alarm/hud dash install when i turn on my headlights with no key in the ignition all my acc turns on, cd player, electric fans, all that shit. now i need to know of an electrial god that can at least say…acually i know this probably wont get directly answered.

any suggestions are welcome

thanks

It could be the battery, try removing both of the position and negative ends and clean the battery terminal ends on the battery and put them back on. I know it sounds weird but it might actually work.

Also, is your car slammed? Check your passenger side wheel well for any signs of wear on your fender liner… hopefully your tires didn’t rub through the wires. It has happened to me before, made my car do all sorts of weird electrical shit.

Good luck!

they might have set it up so that their stero and shit comes on when their lights are on instead of having to turn the key on soo i would check the swet and see if u get power to any of the wires when u turn the key
