Ok so I've been scratching my head at this for 2 days now and can't seem to find the solution maybe some of you can help at least with a diagnoses so I can fix this.

So my car was starting fine with no problems..and then all of a sudden I lost power inside the cabin ingnition won't even turn on the gauges, windows don't go up, sunroof doesn't either!? And the weird part is that my headlights still function fine the pop ups still go up?
We tried jump starting it, push starting it, switched out the battery, checked all the fuses and relays and they're all good!? So idk what else could possibly go wrong?

So if any body can help it would be great! This is my only daily and I need it to get to work so I need it running asap!

How low is your car? sounds like something got rubbed thru or disconnected.
how is the driver side harness in your wheel well?

Yea I just recently lowered my car pretty low! So let me check that harness

Should be the harness that sits above the wheels, take your fenders off and move the harness up into the fender.

Do this: Help, my tire is eating through my harness!

Driver side is usually the issue but check the passenger side fender well - there is a harness in there too.

Ok so I figured out the problem and it seems to be at the fuse box..the wires leading the the fuel pump and eng. Cont. Fuses are burnt and not passing any current. Is there any way I can patch the wires up since they're burnt right where they connect to the fuse box? Or do I have replace the entire fuse box and harness??

As far as the harness under the wheel wall, it was fine but I'm definitely going to relocate that before it causes a problem as well.
