Default Dead 92 si need some thoughts

Ran fine
has 313k miles on it
Had the car for roughly 1 month (drove maybe 600miles)
Drove from SC to MN

Ok now the problem:
- Left lights on and now its dead, I fully charged the battery but cranks as though ECU fuse is out (if you know what I mean)
- Buddy of mine said it spun a rod. (wouldn't it still start though?)
- I did not check anything yet.
- Timing belts still there (didn't check timing though)
- I'm guessing its the head gasket (buddy said if it was it'd still start)
- Has alarm- auto start, kill, pager, etc. (though it might be that?)

I'll start checking stuff out tomorrow though.


Other reasons Main relay? (the one by the steering wheel?)

let me know what you guys think
thanks

Check if it has fuel, check if fuel pump is pumping by turning key on to II and listening for a faint "hbmmmp" noise.

Check if injectors are clicking, put the tip of a screwdriver on body of the injector, put your ear on the handle end and have a buddy turn it to II and see if you hear one faint "click"

Check for spark, pull out a spark plug wire and put it near the motor block, have a buddy crank and see if it has spark.

Check for those first and let me know. We can go from there.
