well that has happen to me alot lately.. check your grounds. if all your lights and stuff turn on and radio works but once u try to start the car and all your power just dies and the car wont turn. i think it might be a ground. i had to hook up a 10gauge wire to my starter bolt and chassis. once i did that, my car turn over right away. i would suggest doing that and see if it starts.
