Went out to start my truck earlier. Acc position, radio/gauges, etc. OK.
Went to crank over and everything went dead.
Thinking ignition switch. It's raining today, so going to start looking it over tomorrow.
Besides switch, any of y'all experienced something similar and can point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

Radio, gages, etc. don’t take much current. After cranking once it can drain an already dead battery so that nothing works.
Look at this thread as a lot of the same tests/things to check can be used in your situation. Also, if you find your battery is dead it could be that your alternator is not working.
