SOUNDS LIKE ALL YOUR PROBLEMS COULD BE AT THE FUSE BOX OR MAY BE BAD ROUND WIRES
The car was side swiped on driver side by the fuse box but dont see any bad fuses or broken wires
The really wired thing is i disconnected airbag control module and all dash lights came on at once then pluged it back in and still nothing but now if i unplug it will not do it again

kindly check on all the relay fuses, especially those next to the computer box, test each and every one of them after having made sure that the ignition key in on, if there is any fuse out of order, kindly make a replacement
Checked them all they all look good even went to pick and pull got a used computer and like 5 extra relays replaced them one by one but there and still nothing bypassed the ignition switch but nothing is working even jumped the starter with screw driver it worked but just dont work with ignition would not start tho starter would just crank when i jumped it
Fixed the car it was a 30 amp box fuse under the hood.
