    Default engine won't stay on.

    okay, my wife drove my car to work everyday since 2 weeks ago.
    it a 97 integra ls.
    everything was working fine with out any light(check) on.

    so about a hours ago she phone me and told me that the car shake it feel like it turning off. she pulled over on the highway and it went dead.

    i came and take a look
    i turn the key to power ................nothing
    i turn the key to on............. nothing. no sign like srs,oil change, CEL, ECT. also i did not hear the relaying making the clicking( click-click) noise. i did not hear the fuel pump working, instrument panel blinking once.

    car turn on and turn off right the way.

    BUT IF I KEEP IT BETWEEN POWER AND START, the car will stay on...(Picture below)

    i hope nobody got thesame problem but agian i hope somebody know how to solve it.

    THANKS
