I have a Honda Prelude with 150,000 miles that intermittently would start but now completely will not start. Here is what I know. Normally the dash lights come on when trying to start but now they do not. Signal lights & wipers will not work but headlights do. The starter will work. No power to windows or sunroof. Previously (twice) messed with the trans. Shifter and it would start but no more. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Your gear position switch below the center console might not be making contact internally-jumper the black and white wire to the black and red, and see what happens then report back-

That did not do the trick. I have also checked the coil and there is no fire from there. Is there something common to the power windows not working and the car not starting?
