Car won’t start, when you turn ignition switch on and try to crank it, everything goes off and won’t do anything. Please help. Thanks

Welcome to 2CarPros.

What you described sounds like a weak or bad connection. The most common thing that causes this to happen is a loose or corroded battery connection. Start by checking that first. Also, I am assuming the battery is good.

Take a look through this link and do what is suggests.

Let me know if that helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,
Joe
