I have an electrical issue. When I tried to start the engine, I am getting nothing. It is like the battery is dead but I know it is not. I had just started it. The interment panel lights up when the door is open without the keys being in the ignition. There is a clicking noise (relay I assume) coming from the rear of the engine that is constant even without the ignition being turned. Tried to jump it, but when I turn the key the entire panel goes dark. (not completely black but extremely dim.) Any ideas, help?

I know your problem should fix by now.... But for future members with this problem. Check your Starter if your battery is good and the alternator is good. The starter would be the next thing to check
