Default Absolutely no power to anything... WTH

Well after my last thread... (the cranking but not start dilema) It since then started and drove perfectly fine for two days and sitting overnight when id go out to start the car..

BUT then, my first day at work I show up at noon and when I get off at 6pm my car wont start. This time there is no power to anything. no click, beeping, dim lights, nothing. Called a friend and when we tried to jump it, still absolutely nothing at all. And when I had my previous issue of cranking but it wouldnt start like 5 days back or so, I had the starter battery and alt tested... all checked out fine... WTH is going on? All fuese are good, main relay looks fine, I barely drove the car 2 days and now this.


This is my first eg and i freaking hate it... Ive never had any problems like this let alone any problem with all my crx's ive owned.. Im about to give up on this car...

probably a really dumb question to ask, but are your battery terminals tight and corrosion free??

check the grounds from battery to body and rad support to motor (this one is actually very important)

very true... I've seen that ground and the thermostat housing ground cause the same problem

definitely and connection issue. if you have absolutely no power at all it has to be battery connection/ground
