no power after changing battery terminals
 

I have no better way to explain this then simply put, there is no power to the truck at all. I initially thought, battery went dead... but its a new battery. I took that and the alternator to advance had them tested, battery was dead, alternator was fine. I let them charge the battery for a couple hours, bought some new terminals. Went home, changed the terminals, re-installed alternator, went back to advance got my battery, re-installed that.

Now heres the odd thing.. When i was re-installing the battery, usually ill hear my power locks engageing/disengaging. This time I didn't. I didn't hear anything. I wiggled the terminals got nothing. I know I didn't screw up the terminals, thats almost impossible to do. I did them 1 wire/1 terminal at a time.

I cut them at the base of the old terminals. Cut down the insulation enough to get the wire into the new terminal. Slipped them in, tightened the clamps down on the terminal to secure the wires.

I tested my fuse panel, nothing was drawing excess power.

Could my ignition switch of went haywire?

see if you got power going to the starter solenoid

Ive heard these trucks got a fuse on the battery terminal wire you might wanna trace the wire to find one


Edit: I forgot check your grounds also
