Starting Issue With My B13
Car Wont Crank . Dash Lights Stay On Even When The Key Is Out .
So Far Ive Changed The Following :

Starter
Alternater
Alt Belt
Battery
Battery Terminals
Changed Fuses Even If They Were Good

I Also Added Grounds But Nothing .
Oil Light & Check Engine Light Dont Come On .

Weird Part Is That I Drove The Car 1 Hour Before All This Happened . Started Up Fine No Problems & When I Went To Go Out No Start . But The Car Had Its Power & Everything Seemed To Be Ok .

*Update*
I Was Told Maybe The Safety Neutral Switch May Be Bad . Can That Be Another Reason I Cant Start The Car & The Reason My Oil & Check Engine Light Dont Come On .

Yes, a faulty Park/Neutral switch is a possibility for your car not starting. There is a way to bypass it so you can start the car in any gear, but I am not sure how to do this. As far as the oil and CEL light, I'm not sure.

Have you checked your relays? Re-set the ECU?

Read this, it might help you diagnose the problem.

Jumping that switch is pretty easy... Just cut the two wires, strip them and join them together. Wrap in electrical tape. But when I had that problem with my 4 door ga, the dash lights didn't stay on. That is kind of weird... I would try resetting the ecu like he said. Just disconnect the battery for a while and see if that helps.
