first off i have searched the following and have not seen any situations that were like this
So i just put a new motor in my car, i was trying to start it andit was turning over fine then i realized something might be wrong with the timing, so i made sure the timing was ok, when i was tightening the alternator back in the rachet hit the ground on the alternator. I heard something from around the battery and thought for sure i blew the alternator fuse(have done that a few times). but the fuse looked ok and i replaced it anyway. when i went to turn the car on i was getting no power, no safc, no radio, no tt, and no fan which is hooked up to the ignition. i replaced all the fuses on the battery and checked all the fuses i could. so im not getting any power to the ecu, i used a multi meter and tested the current coming to the ignition and it was reading 12volts. the headlights/dashlights work, and the interior lights are ok too. i really cant figure out why i wouldn't be getting any power when i turn the key
