Default HELP!! lights flickering, no turn signals

I started my Jk today and noticed the lights flickering. When I started to drive it nothing worked. The turn signals high beams, wind shield wipers. The interior lights and radio worked. Any ideas?!

Have you done any lighting mods?

Everything is stock so far Besides the tires and rims. I just got it a month ago. It's a 07 2DR Jk.

Have you tried the trusty "pull the battery" fix yet?

Simply pull the positive lead off the battery, go have a cup of coffee (or whatever you drink), come back outside and plug battery back in... test to see if its fixed.

May be a simple fix, if that works.

Sounds like a bad battery connection to me.

Have you checked your fuses?
