99 Ford Taurus: ok guys and ladies, let's wreck our brains on this?

I went to store one day bought a soda, got back in my car turned the key: NOTHING.
I POPPED hood no sign of anything I'd obviously suspect. Battery charged fuses good, but only half my dash indicator lights come on. Doors lock, Windows work, but get this, the running lights stay on! No key no switch just stay on. OBD Il port won't respond to diagnostic tool. Before you say PCM, think about my symptoms. I'm here waiting… Ford tech reach out and help me!99 Ford Taurus: ok guys and ladies, let s wreck our brains on this
