Have you had the battery and alternator tested? If so, and good. Check your fuses and wiring to and from battery and alternator.

Hi Johnny, thanks for helping, it sounds like the ignition switch or a fusible link is the problem

To the fuse box there is main power feeds coming from the starter or battery terminal remove the fuse box to test these main power feeds, you have one of them not working
