Won't Crank.. My guages went out the other day, and now my car won't start. I made a couple of passes in it and everything was fine, but then all of a sudden while driving home I lost switched power, that must have been when the guages fuse blew. I pulled over and turned the car off to check things out, but found nothing, so I tried to crank it back up and it wouldn't start, I ended up having to tow my car home. Now I've checked every fuse, changed the relays, replaced the ignition switch, got a new battery and a new starter and still nothing, no click, no tick, nothing, the lights don't even dim when trying to start. I can hear the relay click when I try to crank it but not a peep from the starter. I replaced the guage fuse and the guages came back on, now all my lights work, the stereo works, and I can hear the fuel pump priming, but no crank, wtf 
has anybody ever seen anything like this?

Found the problem, it was the ignition switch, along with a bad guages fuse, replaced it, dropped the steering column and replaced the switch and vroom, she started right up.
