Icon3 Car won't start might be relay help thanks

hey everyone thanks for helping me with my hatch. but i just got another project car. a ej2. i threw a zc motor inside everything rain good and i let it set for like a month and now when i stick my key in the ignition and turn it over none of the cluster lights won't turn on nothing happens at all. i checked all my fuses and my grounds. could it be my relays? it has an aftermarket sunroof and it kinda leaks and water gets in my car and might mess with the wiring but i'm not sure. so please any advice will help thanks.

Have you cleaned the battery posts and connectors?

Did you check fuses 15, 25, and 30 under the dash?

So the starter cranks the engine fine but the engine won't fire and run?

And the gauge assembly indicator and warning lights also don't turn ON?

Your ignition switch may be bad.

seriously doubt its your main relay. that shouldnt prevent your lights from not turning on. and your car should at least attempt to turn on.. you must have a circuit or a fuse thats causing a shortage. good luck
