Default Car won't start, even turn on

My car would only start by jump starting and rolling in 2ed gear, but it would prime up and everything, but after it started, and i shut it off, i tryed to start it agian, it would just prime the fuel pump and nothing, had to jump start it all the time, so im thinking, it's the starter, sure enough, the starter sensor wire is lose, i dis the battery and go to tighten it, but when i do, FAT sparks fly when the bolt touchs the tranny, still had a charge in it, WTF. Ok, i tighten the screw, and reconnect the batter
it turns on, then BAM, NOTHING, everything is off, my alram lights, everything, nothing turns on, nothing works.

i take the key out and try to go back in, nothing, won't even start, not even a light on, NOTHING.

So i disconnect the battery and reconnect it, nothing
I change the main relay nothing
check starter fuse and like 14 others, all good. nothing

any got any other ideas on it

some guages for more help

sounds like a main fuse, check under hood fuse box ,it's easier than you think to blow a fuse.

looks are not the best way , get a test light and test across or get a Volt / ohm meter and check one by one.

i pulled and tested all the fuses, and all the fues under the ecu, Nothing was broken
so i put in my other battery that i thought was dead, but started and ran on my beater car ok, put that back in, didn't start, ****, changed out the main relay, and move the grounds and put washer under them for a better conact.

BAMMM

Car turned on and Started
