Default 2005 z won't start

I tried to start my Z this morning. It had full power, but all I heard were some fast clicks and the gauges going crazy. Any ideas on what it could be? I didn't think it was a battery since everything else seemed to have full power. Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

it could be weak power or a power draw, check for loose connections anywhere, fuses or try jumping it with another car. My truck was doing that too, found out it was a wire draw that needed a new harness and a really weak battery. Traded that sucker 03 Tacoma for a 05 Z and let Nissan deal with it.

Dead or dying battery.

Thanks all. It was the battery. Everything works fine now. My other vehicles act different when the battery dies so I was afraid it was something else.
