Ignition switch fried and you blew a brake line at the same time. Problem solved...next!

No just kidding, the first part sounds like typical ignition switch problems or a bad gage cluster, brake pedal going to the floor usually only happens when a line blows, look for a fluid leak behind any of the wheels or along the driver side fram rail.

As for the coincidence of the two happening at the same time and not being related? I dont know...crazy??

went out started up just fine, all the gauges working, no lites, no window wipers, power windows don't work, no turn signals, only dash lite that came on was the service engine lite but as soon as engine stared it went off, radio works ok, will check the fuses?? any other advice would be great.
