Hmmmm. Well, I'm no expert, but I've been coached by my Dad on many occasions when I am trying to diagnose a car problem. It sounds most likely that your battery is dead. Were you able to figure out if you left anything on that might have drained it? I once left an interior light on overnight and that did it. If you didn't, it might be totally dead/need replacing. Which isn't AWFUL, in the scheme of things. It also could be your alternator, which kind of controls how power gets to things in your car. Once it goes, the power is a no go and it will also drain your battery.
You could take the battery to a place like Advance AutoParts (which you might have in Pa? I live in Va.) I think they will test your battery for free to see if it's dead. If you are able to remove the battery yourself, etc. Have you tried jumping the car yet to see if the battery will charge back up?
