    My dashboard and display have been dead for awhile now. Though the dashboard did work one time a few weeks ago.

    I drove in the rain to the store 10 minutes away with the AC running and had no problems.

    However after a half hour I tried to start the car but the ICE did not start. The light on the start button was orange. The check engine light came on.

    Putting it in drive or reverse didn't do anything. I can't tell due to the dashboard being out but I think I was just putting it neutral.

    The headlights, brake lights, hazard lights, remote door locks, windshield wipers, radio, and AC all worked though.

    Tried jumping it but nothing happened.

    12v battery is a little over a year old. I disconnected it and then reconnected it but still nothing.

    I am pretty lost on what to do.
