[QUOTE="Will_K, post: 21507, member: 7902"] I'm going to close this out with a final update. Next suspect was a connection on the engine fuse block. I briefly got back interior lights as I fiddled with connectors. But I did so with the box not installed. Thinking I had one problem solved, I disconnected the use block, installed the box and reconnected. And I was back to no power. Among diagnostics I observed some places that should measure 12v were measuring 2v. Some measures 12v. Not until yesterday did I put together 2 and 2. This was due to a good ground on the engine and a bad connection to the body ground. I realized the 2v readings came from the interior and the 12v readings came from the engine compartment. I had also swapped fuse blocks before I found the ground problem. This may be why when I had power back my no start problem was also solved. The car is now back to being drivable. [/QUOTE]
