Default HELP!!! Getting the new car up and running...

I've posted an ongoing thread in the general SC3/4 section in regards to my build, but I had a question specifically related to this technical section.

I've pulled the top end apart, and replaced the head gasket, head studs, had the head freshened up, and cleaned an ungodly number of things. I'm putting the car back together, and I'm at the point where I was going to do a cold compression test, but for some reason I'm missing something somewhere. I've got every damn thing in the engine bay hooked up, but I've still got the radio and climate control out. I'm suspecting an alt fuse, but will that keep the rest of the vehicle from getting power? I feel like an idiot staring at my bay scratching my head thinking that I don't have something hooked up right - but there are only a handful of things that could cause this problem.

I'm not getting power to the fuel pump. I turn the key and the CEL comes on, but that is just about it. The gauge cluster itself isn't lit even when the lights are on. The only visual confirmation I'm getting from the car at all right now is the ignition ring lights up, the door ajar light comes on, and the CEL is on.

Any ideas? Am I a retard and hooked up a battery cable wrong, or would this Alt fuse do this? Any help would be AWESOME.

Thanks.

Seriously after 30 views no one has the slightest idea of something to try? I've had more positive feedback on SF, and they're all *******s.

Arnt we impatient.

Maybe the 30 people who viewed didn't know....like yourself. A childish manipulative comment about the response time on SF???..Whats that?

Check all relays, fuses etc...either somethings not plugged in or plugged in wrong... Your post tells me you like to shoot first and go "WTF?" later...So recheck everything you did.

SF = Supra Forums.

Pulled and replaced ALL fuses. Car works. Now I need oil and coolant.
