my 1980 280zx is dead. i put a new battery in it and it wouldnt start after running it for three days, so i knew that the alternator was bad.

i went to get a new battery and also some new battery wires and terminals since mine were going bad anyway.


when i installed the battery wires and hooked up all the grounds my car was still dead. no lights no nothing, complete loss of power.


i have a new alternator and i have tried to find any bad fuses but im not sure what to look for, any suggestions??

thanks

When you replaced your battery cables did you hook up the two wires that connect to the positive cable that feed the fusible links?

Did you put the new battery in?
