**VIDEO INCLUDED**Car won't crank or fire and gauges flicker So this all started after i found out the bafx obd2 dongle bent one of the pins and caused the area on it and the obd2 connector to melt and cause my dash to drop dead while driving.
Since then i stopped using the bafx and tried to clean the areas around the obd2 connector. Car ran fine for 1-2 days. Now it won't turn over. When i turn the key to acc on i hear the fuel pump prime for a split second then stop. the instant i turn to on everything turns off. If i do it 2-3 times the rpm and oil pressure would flicker after i turn to off for a few seconds. The cig fuse is fine. I checked the gauge fuse and that's fine. Currently stranded waiting for the tow truck. Any ideas where to check? Vats is turned off. Tried jumping pin 30 and 87 on the starter relay in the fuse box to test the starter and nothing at all.
Also is it normal when you crank that the oil pressure needle goes to the far right past the 80psi?
