So now if you turn the key it makes no noise? Have you tried jumping it? You could have a dead battery or bad starter. I'd try jumping it first before I did anything else.

No thats not it. I drove it an hour before with no problems at all. Got in later and it had 100% power to everything (lights, stereo, ect) then when i turned the key it turned the motor over (about have a revolution, but in a normal fashion, not slow) and then instantly everything lost power, radio off, everything. From then on it now has no power, and it shows no signs of life at all. Is there a master fusable link or relay that would kill everything all at once?

Overloading the electrical path left through the corrosion. Sweet no big deal to fix.
