New cables, both pos. & ground ? Did ya check grounds, both battery & body? Assuming your running a diesel, is the power cable (positive cable) the stock 1 ? Dumb question....are these batteries new ? If not, ya ought to test 'em to see if they are up to the task ! When you turn your key to the on position, do you hear the fuel pump run ? It sounds like you have either bad grounds, or a broken power wire.
