I had to have my beloved 2006 Rx8 towed to the dealer today. I have had it stored in my garage for last month. Started and ran fine last Thurs. I went to start it last night to move to my winter storage garage. I got in car and lights and all were normal. When I turned ignition I heard one very short starter noise then all went dark. After that I could not turn keyless ignition and had no interior lights but the headlights go on and are bright. When I manually insert Key and turn to ACC position the dash lights go on but still no interior lights or power windows or radio, etc. when I try to start I hear nothing at all - no click, no grind, no crank.

We tried to jump start - no change.

Any ideas?

Thanks all.

 

I assume you checked the fuses?

 

I did not but had wondered if could be a fuse.

 

In case helps someone else, turned out to be an issue with battery cable that caused no power to the fuse block. All better now - putting my baby to bed for the winter.

 

Lights work until you crank - then blackness?

Bad battery connection.
