02 Subaru Manual trans Wagon.

Allong time ago as referenced in these 2 posts ( http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=756835 , http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=869894 ) I had an interior electrical problem. The problem effected my door locks, power windows, keyless entry, and dash lights. It started by making a buzzing noise when I would do press any of my power window buttons. This buzzing noise would make my dash lights flicker.

I lived with it and eventually the lights stopped working allong with the dash lights.

Fast forward 6 months. I leave the car sit for 2 weeks. come out and it won't start. I buy a battery, and try starting it, but it still won't start. I put it on the charger, and it still wont start.

I am in the process of checking my ignition switch, and all relays. I removed the engine fuse/relay box to find the main line coming into it had some corrosion on it. I removed it and cleaned it up, but still nothing.

Any ideas?

the buzzing sounds like a short/intermittent contact somewhere... electrical problems are annoying... trace the wiring harness all around - make sure nothing is cut/pinched/burnt/broken. No power at all sounds like one of the main fuses (in the engine compartment) blew.

Cut wires in the drivers side wheel well. Soldered good ones in. All good :)
