No idea what happened. I got home after my hockey game just before midnight and everything was fine. An hour later I was about to head out and suddenly the car won't start. All accessories, lights, radio, etc. turn on but nothing happens when I turn the key, not even a click or crank. Lights don't dim when I try to start and shifting to neutral didn't help either.

There's an auto shop down the street but I'd like to know what the likely issue is before I get someone to fiddle around and charge me for unnecessary diagnostics.

Fixed. Meter fuse was blow in the drivers fuse panel.

Repaired at 5am. Seems like it was a problem with the back up camera drawing too much power, and the wires shorted out.

5 am? I think that's a steak dinner and a pint.

If Ryan was a drinker, I would've given him cirrhosis of the liver by now. He's helped me out with almost every mod I have.
