car won't start. No power at all
Hi all,
I'm hoping someone can help. My rx8 had a flat battery so I went to jump start it from another car. I hooked it up to another cars battery and left it for 5 minutes. The relevant lights came on the dash when I put the key in the ignition. However, when I went to turn over the car all power died pretty much instantly. Now no lights will come on on the dash and the car will not turn over at all.
Does anyone have any ideas of whats wrong? I've checked the main fuse and this seems fine.

Hey Harry....
Just spitballing here but i think your issue is fuse related....
I would double check all fuses in the engine bay and in the cabin (drivers side by your feet)
Especially the main fuse.....
I would also check and clean your battery terminals, these become dirty over time and can cause issues if they aren't seated properly...
