Default 93 Del Sol - no power to anything

I put a battery to the sol for the first time however no ecu and no alternator yet, so I put the key in and it beeps for the door open, brake lights work, and the windows roll down. So I'm checking the systems for just a few minutes and the battery dies, so I charge it put it back in and the key and it starts to beep for the door open, then take the key out, then go back put the key in and no beep. Now I have no power no brake lights no interior lights nothing. My fuses under the dash are good, any suggestions ?

Sounds like a short to ground is draining the battery.

What year is your car?

Sounds like the battery ground attached to the chassis is disconnected, loose, or corroded.
