Well a couple days ago I was soldering my new rear speakers together, and I had the radio and things out. I finished up, and put all back together turn the car on and everything works great.
I pulled back into the drive way, turned the car off and was getting out and I hit the power locks to lock the car up to go inside when I realized that it did nothing. Then it hit me that nothing was working (though everything works perfectly fine when the cars on). The cabin lights are out, the radio forgets the time and its stations, the bells to tell me that my lights are still on don't ring (head lights still work). Took a multimeter to the battery and its still giving out a charge, checked the fuse box to make sure.
Going to go in deeper tomorrow or sometime when I'm free, but was wondering if you guys had any ideas.
