The only thing that comes to mind in a situation where a car that was running a short time ago and now is COMPLETELY DEAD is a failure of the battery or the primary cables/connections. I'd begin by checking the cable connections at the ends on the battery. The ends at the battery are more prone to failure than the other ends, but check both ends of the cables starting at the battery side. One would be wise to do this with caution, or, if lacking sufficient expertise, with some help.

Hook your ingition power wire from the ingition harness to your head light switch (useally Green in color on GM) and it will solve your problem
It sends a power to the starter relay/solenoid to engauge the starter. Know that the ignition switch is not what you put the key in and turn. That is the lock assembly. The ignition switch is located lower down on the steering column.
The daylight running lights of a Ford Explorer can be turned off by using the manual headlight control switch. Place the switch in the middle position to turn the daytime running lights off. The headlights will then need to be turned on manually at dusk.
They are cameras to catch you speeding and running red lights.
Depends if you have the ignition running or just the say you left the lights on. If you just left the ignition on all night nothing will happen except just running out of fuel. If you left your lights on without ignition running your battery will die.
mainly leaving your lights on when the engine is of or leaving the keys in the ignition
vehicles equipped with day time running lights are designed to have the running lights on when the vehicle is running in gear.the only time you can change that is by turning on the headlights, or turning off the ignition. some running lights go out when the transmission is put into park. ( the only way to change that is by manually disabling the lights, like cutting wires, or breaking bulbs)
The manual running light switch may be "on". It is located on top of the steering column, near the dashboard guages, in a 1998 Legacy. The switch operates the lights without requiring the ignition switch to be on.
If the Explorer is running engaging the parking brake is supposed to turn the daytime running lights off , otherwise the daytime running lights are supposed to shut off when the engine is shut off . I have a 2004, Eddie Bauer Explorer. On the light switch itself, there is a selection to turn on or off the day lights, as well as the extended, courtesy lights after ignition is turned off.
They should turn off when the ignition is turned off and the key removed.
day time running module on drivers fender back by the brake booster needs to be replaced
Are the lights in the dash coming on, and it just won't crank or are there no lights at all? If the lights are coming on you need an ignition switch.
It is normal if other lights come on at the same time. All of the reminder/warning lights should come on when ignition is in idle (key's in ignition, but the car is not running)
The only way to turn them off is to shut off the ignition, pull on the parking brake lever, then restart your engine. Running lights should be off. Once parkig brake is released, lights will come back on.
I'm not a mechanic but I believe that is a malfuctioning DRL module
What kind of auto is it. Sounds like you may have an ignition switch problem.
