NEED HELP! what does this mean? I got into my car this morning and started it up and the only gauges working were my oil battery and rpm my lights that are on are check gauges, absinop, service vechicle, airbag, service engine soon was on anyways because I havent got my back 02's deleted(but started blinking a couple of times). I started driving it and it started working, then it stopped again. I pulled over turned my car off and re started it and everything was working again a few minutes later it stopped. Now it has stopped and will not work. I the fuses in the driver door and the two boxes under the hood and no fuses are blown. Does anyone know what this means?
now everything is still not working but my check engine light is off and my alarm will not activate but goes off periodically and when I takes my keys out and radio will not turn its self off. Damn I dont know what is wrong

well i got in my car this morning and it wouldn't start so i jump started it and when i turn the ignition off and took my key out it was still running. I had to put my key back in and turn it on and back off for it to die.

well my battery is dead so the frist thing I am going to do it get a new battery. I think I might get a new ignition switch too. Could a short in the igition switch cause all this?

replaced the battery still doing the same thing. I am hearing some clicking noises from the fuse box under the hood. It sounded like it was coming from the ignition relay so I replaced it and that wasn't it. still clueless?????
Couple of things to consider...you said you r/r'd the ign relay correct? Well what about the starter relay right next to it? Iv'e seen similar symptoms and just swapped the relays and that's all. Just oxidation. Second, did you have any build up of acid on the cable(s)?

No no acid on the cables, no I havent replaced the starter relay because I figured it had to something with the ignition since my car was running with the ignition turned off and the the key out. I am going to get a starter today and I will see. thanks
