OK, no start. Actually no power. Doing the EFI install and ready to fire it for the first time. I hooked the battery back up and there were no sparks to indicate a short or power draw. Had power for a while cause the door buzzer went off when I turned the key on. Turned the key to on and heard a whoosh which I took to be the fuel pump pushing fuel and the air heading to the return. Tried to connect the flash cable and
had to download a usb to serial software patch. Got that done and went to try it again and no power. The fuse box is dead - no power. Checked the battery - it lights a test lamp and I made sure the connections are clean and tight. The ground connection on the block is secure. Tried the boost switch and heard a thud but still no power.

I tied into the crank sensor at the top of the engine so I never was able to get at the connections on the starter. Miguel put a new starter in when he redid the motor. There is power to the starter solenoid.

Ideas?
