any help would be appreciated

i went to start up my car yesterday, and it turned over for a second or two and then everything just lost power. the battery is fine, all of the fuses are fine, there is just no power going to anything in the car. it worked fine when i drove home from school, i shut it off, grabbed something from my room and tried to start it again and it just went out. could it be the battery cables? any other ideas?

it has to be a bad ground if the battery is good. Did you try to jump it to see what happened? Check your batter cables to teh battery, then follow them to see if everything is still hooked up.

battery cables,

bad ground,

ignition switch,

Do some research from the battery forward.

Or write down what does and doesnt work and consult a wiring diagram for a place to start
