The car cranks though, in the video the clicking is coming from the fuse box. it clicks once when i turn the key to 1 and click like crazy during crank and right after cranking.

Have your battery checked. That rapid clicking makes it sound like your battery is strong enough to light up your dash, but too weak to turn the starter.

Have someone lift the hood, and you try cranking. is the clicking coming from the starter? If so, then check your battery.

Ok so just replace the starter relay. It's the panel just above the fuse box you were looking at. The relay you're looking for is the st relay should be the bottom right. But as I said before I would replace the relay and ignition switch

the car was running fine, then one day while it was running, all the lights on the dash went crazy, there was a whole bunch of clicking and the car shutoff, since then it wont start, and theres clicking from the fuse box. idk if the fuse box is broken or what.i checked all the fuses and the relays...
