charged the battery. no dice.

replaced the main 80amp fuse in the engine bay. no dice.

what's next? I mean, we can take it to a real shop where I'm sure it'll get fixed. but what else can a pretender like me do?

Ground Connection?
You say dead, like nothing lights up?
Or, not enough to turn it?
??

dead, as in no lights on dash, no crank, no nothing. like the battery was disconnected.

Did you solve the problem? If yes, what was the cause? If not, I can help via email as we live quite a distance apart.

doh, I should've posted. it was user error on my part. let's not go into details... let's leave it at "was just me being dumb".
