[Cooter199]

i have replaced my starter solenoid, battery cables, alternater and the battery is new. but my truck wont get any power what so ever. i have checked my grounds and all my conections. anything else?

Are you getting voltage to the solenoid when you try and start it?
Are you getting voltage to the starter when you try and start it?
Does it click-click-click?
Does the interior light come on? any lights like the headlights come on?
Does the interior light, if it comes on, go dim when you try to start it?
When you turn the key on to the first position, do you hear any electronics engage under the hood?


How are you checking your grounds and conections, visual or with a voltmeter or ohmeter?

Is your ignition wire on the battery side of the solenoid or the start side you want it on the battery pos side. If it is on the batt side it could be the fusable link on that wire.

i pulled the wires off and sanded the grounds. and there is no power whatsoever not even aftermarket lights work and theres no fusable link on the wire

It's hard to figure out what's going on from your posts, but if everything is connected correctly, it sounds like your battery is bad. I had one years ago in which the plates shorted out internally. Wouldn't even accept a jump start. Of course it happened when I was like 60 miles from home, it was 18* out, and it was the middle of night. When else could it of happened?
