I went to start my car it turned over but acted like the battery was dead so I tried it again and nothing I tested the battery it was fully charged
i jumped it over from the starter it cranked over but would not start so I took off a spark plug wire stuck a screw driver inside metal to metal and cranked it from the starter no spark came from the wire I dont know what it is but every time I try to start it from inside I get nothing my dash lights come on but it don't crank or anything

The power distribution center is the black box under the hood right with all the fuses in it?
And where is the asd relay located and I do I check it?
