So your not getting any power at all? If thats the case check all the fuses in the fusebox located under the hood. I would also check the battery terminals to see if they have good connection.

I changed out my terminals a while back, did not have any power. I was chasing my tail for a few hours and it turned out that the NEW terminals did not have any connection

Make sure connections are tight.
