So there is absolutly no power? It is definately a connection problem . Take off the terminals and clean them and put them back on see if that helps. If that doesnt help then check all the wires. Also use the search
 






mine did that becase the battey was bad started fine the day before it ran perfect then boom the battey just crapt out.
How old is the battery becase mine was old but was working fine before and just died so i whould check the batt
 






I completely cleaned the cables and i put them back on and their is still no power and i checked the battery and the battery is fine and charged 100%
 






Check Fuse 4 (40 Amp) in the power distribution box ...
 






my 92 did the same thing i went into the grocery store came back and boom nothing.. Checked everything cleaned connections and had the battery tested.. swapped it out an presto on the road again..
 






Check the cables real close. They can look good from the outside, but hide corrosion at the connector, and under the insulation. Went thru this with my dad's 95 Ranger this summer. From the outside, the cables looked brand new. Cut back the insulation a couple inches, and they were full of fuzzy green stuff. Figured this out after trying 2 new starters (assumed the first replacement was bad).
