Car won't start

I have a 2008 honda civic, I've replace the alternator, fuel injectors, oil pan, valve cover and recently the battery but the car will not start without a jump. When I put the key in the speedometer lights up but when i turn it to accessory the whole dash goes black. I have no idea what it could be and shops are closed on sundays.
also when I leave the key in the dash starts flickering and the car won't even crank.

Might be an immobilizer issue, dealer would be your best bet

Re: Car won't start

open the hood, check wiring. you have a big short somewhere
during winter, lots of reports of rodents getting under and chewing wires (car just parked is a warm nest for them)

these 3 likely not related to your issue unless you knocked something electrical out f place or damaged wire insulation in the process of doing them.
