Default Car has no electrical power

I need some help trouble shooting.

I replaced the battery, the ground and power wiress, and the starter. The odd thing is I have no internal or external lights. Also, when I check across the battery terminals I have 12.6 volts. When I check at the starter, it reads 2 volts. Any suggestions?

Yeap, I checked those and drivers side in the cabin . They are all good.

The problem is I read 2 volts at any point in the fuse box.

Check your + battery cable. If your battery reads 12v, then its probably a fuse.
Your starter will read 12v when cranking!

Your headlight and interior dash lights are on 3 seperate fuses which unless you seriously shorted something out, I doubt will all be blown.

Check the power cable again.....something is not making sense here

It turns out my grounds were shot.

Everybody, remember to clean your grounds once a year.
