Battery cables are loose. Didn't get installed right, most likely.

Could have smoked a fusable link in the primary power supply, I guess. Check the box by the battery with the fuses, and the wiring coming off the jumpstart post next to it.

Thank you for the help. The wire from the jump start post wire had a split in it, but did not notice it because you couldn't see it from the top. Fixed it and the car runs fine. Thanks again for the help.
