I did a quick search and found someone with a similar issue, but no resolution so i figured i would post and see what Ht had to say about it.

I get in the car, put the key in the ignition and turn it to ACC, all the lights come on and the stereo works, i depress the clutch and everything stays as it was. when i try to crank the car over i hear a single click and everything goes dead. EVERYTHING. no radio, no headlights, nothing. It stays that way for an indeteminate amount of time, and every once in awhile it will let me repeat the cycle. I have tried replacing the battery and checking the grounds already. Any ideas?

Try good known starter

The headlights don't get power through the ignition switch. This points to a bad battery ground wire or bad battery terminals. Inspect, clean, and tighten them.

i'm still thinking ground issue. lights, accesories, etc should not shut off like that

edit: damn, beat me to it lol

My civic did the same thing before, what I did was pressed down on all the fuses under the hood to make sure they are all plugged in. And I moved around the wires connected to the battery. It started right up after. Could be a loose fuse or battery cable.
