I thought it might be electrical because the interior lights under the dash would not shut off for a long time. If any body has had any problems like this one please give me some info.

Your battery has to be at least 12+ volts or it wont crank fast enough to start.
I'd also check all the connections in the starting/charging system, should all be clean and tight.
