Today I turned the key to have the car completely black out...no power for anything. Lights, accessories, windows, everything was out. I exited the car, engaged the alarm, disengaged it and then got back in and it started fine. Very weird....it seems like a massive power short. Now i find that the rear woofer is putting out a low frequency constantly. I think that somehow these two issues are related. Has anyone else had a problem like this?

Any help would be appreciated....

I am not so sure how much of a help is this....but I had a similar problem, and the bad boy was the ignition switch ....after the cost of a new battery without testing....it was old anyway !!!
