Sounds like a bad starter connection, but it could be any number of things.

You need three things for a car to run - spark, fuel and compression. Confirm you have spark (check the battery for the necessary cranking amps for your car, check to ensure you don't have any fouled plugs/wires), then go from there.

I have 2000 Isuzu rodeo when turning on head lights the left turn stops working and dash lights start blinking off and on

seems to me (id use my meter to find truth) a short in the HL.
head lights. and possible wrong size fuse in that circuit too.

find a good ASE shop. they will make short (no pun) work of this.
or buy a DMM and ask how to do this.
or inspect all HL wires for shorts.
it also seems to me the park lamps side is shorted.
but i cant see dash and the effect.
are you saying the warning lights in cluster or blinking
or the cluster back lights flash.
if back lights , that is PARK (via dimmer) in the dash.
so if the backlights dim that means the park feed is shorted.
but, like I said, I never guess. I use a meter.

My signal lights in my dash both light up when i apply the breaks and only works when i let go of the breaks

Usually this is a short in one of the sockets that holds the bulb, your brake lights are back feeding power causing your turn indicators to glow on dash when you hit the brakes and will stop the turn signal from flashing when you step on the brake pedal also. Start with sockets on rear and look for any shorted or blackened socket ends.

1998 Accord will not start

starting withthe battery,check and clean ALL connections as something is not making proper contact.make sure the cables are good, clamps tight..work your way to the starter solenoid and check contacts/ connections there..also chech ground wires..all this is only if the battery does not have a shorted cell in it.. even new ones can get shorts..if you can get it to start go to autozone or advance..they do free testing..

I have a 2000 Saturn LS2 that has flashing dash lights, i.e. warning lights, etc., when I start car. All the dash lights flicker and the gauges drop to zero. What is wrong?

same problem here as well. I'm going to try and replace the ignition cylinder. Does yours start? Mine starts, but can't get out of park unless I move key to run (put in neutral) and start again, Issue dash is going crazy and running light are flickering. I noticed yesterday that the turn signal lever is hot, so it might be some short in the steering column

I have a2006 g6 just shutt off no dash lights no dome light and when u crank it it sounds to me like timing chain or somthing like that broke(4 banger) thank you for any help im lost

With the dash and dome lights going off, it doesn't sound anything like a timing belt, or chain problem. I am leaning more towards a loose or corrode wire either coming off the battery to the starter, or a bad ground in the starter causing a similar noise as a chain. I would start by checking all the fuses, under dash and under the hood. The dome lights and dash lights are probably on the same fuse. If the starter shorts out it can cause a few different things to short out as well. You haven't mentioned if the car does turn over or not. , now I will say that if you have a motor with a double over head cam, and the timing chain or belt breaks, it will bind the valves and do damage to the engine., but I cannot say that it could effect the lights. They are not connected in any way, but the starter can cause this. I hope I was of some help, keep me informed

My car will not start. when I turn the key it makes a humming sound. the lights on the dash come on, but the car will now start.

Hello, My name is Mike.
I might need a little more details of what you have tried and what it does. For example. When you turn key, you said it hums. Most likely that is your fuel pump or relay coming on. Which is good. If light are coming on that means you have battery.
Does it make a click when turning the key? Does it try and crank over at all? Is it dead except the humming? If you can give me as much information as possible I can pin point the problem.
It could be as simple as a ground wire to the starter solenoid. Check wires there to see if loose or corroded. Also check starter relay fuse in panel. Also when starting, try and wiggle key around in ignition to make sure not short there. I am leaning toward, based on your brief description of symptoms that this is going to be a wire short or fuse relay. Please check out first what I suggested then get back to me with more information to help you further. Thanks Mike

You have a Short somewhere in the Lines. Get a Voltometer from any auto parts Store and Start with the Running lights seeing as U can get to them Easier. The dash lights are on the Same fuse so start with the Easiest First. Message me back!
