my g/f took advantage of me last night and now my car wont start. i was pretty drunk and she got back from work and offered to get me some food in exchange for using my car. well long story short she went to fill me up on gas and after doing that the car wouldnt start. she had tripple A tow it home and i have no ******* clue whats wrong with it. The electrical system is fucked somehow, the only things that will work are the headlights and taillights and thats it. what could be the problem fellas ? i had it dyno'd earlier in the day yesterday and it made 323whp 338wtq. could the shop have "bugged" my car or wtf is wrong with it? all my fuses appear to be in tact both in the dash and under the hood, unless there are more than 3 fuse boxes (1 in the dash and 2 under the hood right?) my alarm doesnt even work and the windows are still rolled down. good thing its not going to rain for another month haha

It could also be the anti-theft system. Mine did alot of weird stuff when the lock cylinder went bad. It acted like a bad battery, I replaced the battery and then it would start intermittently. One of the small wires coming off the cyclinder broke, sometimes it would start and sometimes it wouldn't do anything at all.

ok the only electronics that work are the power seat, the door locks, map lights and dome lights, and headlights. everything else seems like they arent getting power. if it were the anti theft what would i have to do to rest it? i disconnected the battery for about 2 hours and reconnected it and nothing changed

Mine did the same thing,well sound similar. When you try turning the car on does a light blink on the dashboard. just curious.
It ended up being my theft system one of the sensors went bad and wouldnt let my car start up.

Mine did the same thing....lights worked, cd player was going crazy, alarm worked, keyless entry worked, but wouldn't start. Did everything that I could think of then replaced the battery and it has worked fine ever since.

Make sure your battery is good and the cables are tight, my friends TA acted really funny when he had a loose battery cable.

yup, same stuff happened to me, look at your guage, if it is deep in the yellow when in the on position, it's the battery or alt. and the security thing is really easy to notice, its a light that says "SECURITY" in the guage cluster, my LT1 did that a few times randomly.
