Default car will not start or crank over

Ok so I've had my hatch for about two months or so without any major problems other then the cel being on for the o2 sensor heater. Well last night I go out to meet up a friend at a bar etc. Car turns on and I leave my house fine. Get to the place chill out and we decide to get something to eat aight cool get in my car and turns on fine and I leave. We eat talk **** etc. I think maybe for like an hour or so and when we go to leave my car wouldn't start. Its showing symptoms of a dead battery but one of my friends tried to jump it and nothing. It didn't try to crank over even while connected to his battery none of my lights would turn on and neither would anything in my dash the car wouldn't even beep when the key was in the ignition.

O yes and thru reading the no start basics I've already checked all fuses that can related to any start issue and they've checked out I can't check spark or fuel as the car isn't cranking over and it's acting like there is no power thru out anywhere on the car

Car information is required in all tech threads. Please post this critical information in your first post, signature, or Garage feature.

Do the hazard lights work?

Is it a manual? If so there is a switch at the top of the clutch pedal assembly and a common problem with these cars is the plug falls out so the button on that switch is not getting pressed so the car will not start. You should be able to reach up there with your hand and push that button and then see if it will start.

Nope it's auto. And what other crucial info was needed I stated the car and motor. And none of the lights worked.

I fixed the issue it was a loose ground connection and a corroded terminal. But for it to happen out of nowhere like this is crazy lol.
