Yeah my car just randomly stopped starting, put the key in to get her going, but nothing, the dash lights wouldn't even come on at all. i though it might be dead battery but my alarm still worked fine. Like half an hour after that i went to try it again and it worked perfectly (well perfectly for my piece of shit that is :/). Any ideas?

wiring problem.

i've seen under your hood, i'm not going to even attempt to guess where it is.

find a test light.

could be a loose terminal on the battery itself, i've seen that before.
it could also be a loose connection to the alternator, seen that too.

*shrug*

start with the simple shit like that and go from there.

you have a bad connection or a bad ground. invest in a solder gun and some heat shrink and get rid of your butt connectors.
