Changed water pump, reconnected bat. No juice. Checked fuses, found aux b burnt, and replaced. Also checked main ground, cleaned. No juice, and i mean no juice anywhere, hood light, interiors lights, nothing anywhere. I'm lost. And yes, I started it before i began replacement of water pump.

if it was ok before you started , should be ok now , a water pump job is very simple and no wiring involved , retrace your steps and let us know

looked over everything again, no loose wires, and cleaned all the ground posts, straps, wires. still nothing. Checked fuses again, nothing. Put a sledge through the windshield,...... nothing. The reason i disconnected bat. in first place, was for me not to have a shocking experience, but i believe i am in more shock now with no power. Think im gonna try jumpin again, and see if anything magical happens. ty for the help.
