    So I think I figured it out.

    It was a combination of issues.

    Car wouldn't start again this morning. Heck yeah, could finally take a meter to it and start diagnosing.

    No voltage going to starter.....

    Checked out the fuse box. Found a bad connection at one of the fuses... fixed it...

    Voltage at starter now when turning key, still nothing... had someone hit it with a wrench while I turned the key... bam, started right up. Bad starter.
