Dead D2! Ignition? CPS? Starter?... Help, Please!
'03 D2. Ran fine until 4:12, today. No previous starting issues. Here are the symptoms: Tried to start the truck, it turned over slightly, then completely blacked-out. No lights. No power. Absolutely dark. If I disconnect the battery, I get power back ... until I try to start the truck and it goes back into darkness. Completely dead. No matter how much I try to jump-start or charge the D2, it makes no difference. Still dead.
Battery: The battery is fully charged. Just had it checked where I bought it. It also has the correct amount of cold cranking amps.
Alternator: New last summer. Probably not an issue seeing as the battery is fully charged.
Starter: Also replaced it, last summer. Could be bad, but it tries to spin (just prior to going into black-out), so its probably not bad.
Crank Position Sensor: I don't even know where it is, but from dealing with other cars I know it will lock-out everything if its gone bad.
Ignition: The key turns. No issues, there. Not sure where to go with that one.
Your turn. What/how can I test to further eliminate possible causes.

Just drove back out to the parking lot where the D2 sits (9:00 PM). Checked and tightened everything, again. Took a chance and tried pushing the inertia switch. It clicked down. Still nothing. There is a fully charged battery, tightened down hard. No power. Tomorrow I will start checking power down-range from the battery.
