Default No power after starter install

I did a search, but couldn't find anything. Well I bought a used starter to replace my last one. All power accecories came on fine. I got the starter tested before I put it on. It tested good. Then I put it on. But now there is no power at all. I made sure the battery was charged. Help.................


THank you

No power as in nothing turns on or no power as in the starter doesn't do anything?

Yeah, there is no power to anything. But I know the battery is charged. I think it may have something to do with the starter install. There are no lights, or power accecories.

Make sure both terminals are clean and tight on the battery.

Make sure you hooked the starter up right, i.e. you didn't jump any wires or anything and short out your electrical system.

Check all of your fuses.

Try jumping the car off.
