Oldtimer

I bought a 06 tC at a local rebuild shop. It started right up while cranking but shut off with release of the key. It had a remote start at sometime. The blue and black wires were tied together at the ignition switch. I cleaned up the mess now it won't even crank.
The radio and heater work but the dash seems strangely void of lights when the key is on. Just a seat belt icon and a P for park. Unsure of what to think. A main power schematic would be of great help as I'm a electrician by trade.

Could the security system cause this?

if it were me id rip the dash out and check the ECU connections and the rest of the wiring. I don't have a wiring diagram but id search for one if I were you. cant say id scrap the car because of that small issue.
