Re: 98 civic ex has no electrical power
Check whether there is voltage on both sides of the 80A fuse. Also check the other big 40A and 50A hood fuses.
Do the headlights work? Have you cleaned and tightened the battery connectors and ground wire attached to the chassis?

Be sure to clean and tighten the battery ground wire attached to the chassis. Also make sure this ground wire is neither damaged or corroded.
