Car won't start, lights won't go off
So I couldn't find any other threads with the same issue so maybe this is a first. I have a 2006 GS3. It's been fine with no issues starting up. I drove it fine yesterday but when I went out to the garage today the car wouldn't start. So here's what happened. I got in to start it up like normal, the green light came on, but the car didn't start. Tried it again but this time there were no lights other than the green light and the brake pedal was hard to press. There were no warning lights of any kind. I figured the battery is dead. Since I live across the street from an Auto Zone I took the battery over there to have it checked (despite the fact that it's only 8 months old). The battery is still good at 12.5 volts and fully charged.
I put the battery back in and the high beams and parking lights came on right away. So figured everything is fine. But when I got in the car the green light still didn't come on, along with none of the door lights or anything else. My car lights are on auto so I turned them off but the lights stayed on. I disconnected the audio in the trunk also to make sure I'm not drawing power from any where else but still the same result. The exterior lights won't go out and the car won't start. The car is still under warranty so I can have it towed to the dealership but wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this and are there any fixes.
