i have a 97 manual maxima and my ignition switch will not power anything for some reason, not the accesories, radio, the starter or anything. doesnt even click. luckily i had a new one in my car and hooked that up but still nothing. checked every individual fuse in the car and under the hood. am i missing something or didnt check something?everything in the car works except the thing that turn on when the ignition switch is turned to on.anyone please help me otherwise im stranded or hit me up 6108008599

Is your spare switch a known good switch?

Last resort for me would be taking advise from this video (screw driver in the ignition bid).

I agree. Try and rule stuff out. So far, it sounds battery related, then sounds starter related, then ignition related. Try jumping it if you can. Since you said there is no power at all, lets see if someone elses battery will allow lights and radio to atleast come on.

figured it out. the ignition fuse blew internally. something told me to completly rip that ***** apart and it was mangled. the metal strep was fine to the eye and tested fine but interanlly was ****ed. thanks for all who tried to help and those who just throw answers out there without reading . :-) and special thanks to the dude who called me to make sure i was straight
