    I got a car wash and afterward my car's gauges started going up and down, the dash board lights started going on and off, my engine was sputtering and dieing, and my transmission was shifting up and down. it died while driving home about 6 times before i finally gave up, the power steering and brakes would turn off along with the lights and i just coasted down the road until i gave up and left it on the side of the road.

    I came back today and exact thing started again, it died and now it wont start, it will turn over but no ignition

    sounds like an electrical problem, especially since you just got out of the car wash.
