Sounds like something with the ignition switch. With the key on everything would work. Check to see if it's stuck on the "on" position. Good luck.

If you were closer, I would help ya. Just pull the steering column cover off, and look. It's only 4 screws. Then check your ignition. It could just be loose. Check all connectors as well.
