Default 90 Hatch with no power...

My friends just call me and ask for help. He told me that he left his headlight on while he was shopping so he took the battery to AutoZone to get it charge... After that, he replaced the battery but he has no power at all... the car wont crank or click... None of the headlight or signal light up either... Basically, nothing works on his car... I told him to check the fuse but he said everything’s good... I hope he didn't reverse the negative and positive but I wanted get some feedback before I go help him tomorrow... Anyone had a similar issue? He drives a 90 Si Hatch…

Are the terminals on the car snug? Any corrosion, try twisting the neg terminal, honda terminals are junk and they don't make very good contact sometimes unless it sits a certain way.

yeah that was the problem with my other friend... The car didn't start so they bought new battery but the negativer terminal was the problem because of the corrosion build up... Will see what happen when I get there today...
