HELP---weird problem /coil cable/pink wire/ignition key.....

Hi guys i hope you can help me
I got this weird problem today..i was cruising when i parked and i realized that i couldnt close the windows cause there was no power..so i turned the contact on and Nothin happened.
all the gauges were dead and all the fuses OK ...i was able to turn the park lights....so it was no batt or fuse.
i couldnt start the car...so i tried to started it with
the starter makin a bridge...guess what ¡ NO SPARK also..
So i found out ¡ i took a wire and i made a connection from
the batt positive to the pink wire that goes to the coil
AND that was it ¡..but the contact key was off..and there was contact anyway....weird...so i started the car and leaved-.
when i reached home i was able to stop it turnin the key off
so that makes me think that is not the Key cilynder.
I think i have a problem with something that feeds that pink cable that goes to the coil...
can anyone help me ?PLEASE ¡¡¡
I DONT WANT TO make the process everytime i start the car ¡¡
thnx ¡
