It is like I have no power in the fuse box. I am trying to hook a hot wire to the fuse box and cannot find any.

Okay, no power at any fuse inside the car, first thing is remove all non factory hook-ups to that fuse panel inside the car, then open the hood, and test the fuse links in the fuse box under the hood. They are right where the positive battery cable connects to it.

Most of them look like fuses but quite a few do not. How would I check those? Replace each one with a new one? Is the number one fusible link outside the main box?

I appreciate the help. I found it. It was a 40 amp fuse in the box under the hood. Cannot believe one fuse controls that much.

These are hard to blow, usually it is a maxi-fuse, and the way your inside box was abused, it took some doing to blow the fuse!
