960 won't start, electrical system dies upon turning the key 900 1996

posted by  someone claiming to be Justin L. on  Fri Sep 17 14:12 CST 2004 [RELATED]

I got in my 1996 960 tonight, inserted the key, turned it, and heard a click, and everything electrical died... down to the dome lights and door bing! I sat and left the key in for a minute and the interior lights came back on, but when I turned the key to attempt to start the car again, everything went out again! Even the power to the radio went out so that it is prompting me for the code. I was thinking it may be the key switch, but would EVERYTHING electrical die in that case? Is there a main breaker for the battery? I am completely stumped. Help!
