Power to dash but will not turn over

[Firefighter53]

I have a 2008 Dodge 3500 6.7, 6 speed it has been deleted but not tuned so the check engine light stays on. The issue I'm having is I went to get in the truck a few days ago and it wouldn't turn over, I have all power to the dash an when I turn the key the radio goes off and it won't do nothing. I did replace a battery end connector that was cracked. Replaced it and still nothing. The clutch safety switch is by passed also by the original owner and it did great when I got it, started fine an everything. I also did notice a lighting bolt that came on on the dash but now it's gone. Has anyone ever had this issue? Need help

Faulty ground connection somewhere in your instrument panel causing a loss of power, or a dead short bazoocam  causing a cyclic loss of power to either the IAC or the injector circuits, especially under load...... Just my suggestion...... Cheap fix, but one of the worst headaches you can possibly get..... If you own a car and have to sometimes work on it yourself, buy a Chilton's or Haynes manual for it. Either at O'Reilly's or Autozone. Make certain you get the one that includes your own protonvpn vehicle in it.

Biggest fails I see... Cracked fuses. Hacked up wiring, bad relays, bad safety switch or missing, bad start contacts.

 

Safety switch (manual) is under the dash and (auto) is on the transmission. The fuses for the starter I've seen crack and look find but no power to starter solenoid relay. Then I've seen the starter solenoid relay fail and not deliver power to the starter. I've seen starter contact fail pretty common the start pinion gear will pop out but no spin of the starter. All these are super simple to repair and cheap.
