Ok, so i drove to a mates and stayed for about 10 minutes, get back to the car and it wont start. I've got no idea what it is and what it can be. So far Ive tried:

- Push start
- Disconnecting the Battery
- Checked Ignition fuse

What seems to occur is when i try to turn the ignition over there is a buzzing sound from behind the fuse box. Also all interior lights and stereo flash when I turn the key

Any Suggestions??

wiggle the battery terminal around, does the engine crank? or does it sound like battery is dying,

Can you hear fuel pump prime when key switched to accessories? Check the fuse for this to.

flat/dead battery

this is probably the main reason, but u said interiors go on, if u tried cranking does the light blink or anything? or does it look like its about to die.

one of the last terminals (in the battery) has probably died. it will still give u a little power to put ur interior lights but wont give you enough juice to turn the engine over. new battery time.
