no power? Must be a bad battery (if you hooked it up correctly)
Try jumping it. Also check to see if there is a main power fuse. If no fuse your power cables could be broken under the insulation. or, for some reason, not making contact at their connections.
What kind of car?

well, I wouldn't think that a '94 would have a wiring issue already (at least the power cables) but you never know. how did you make out last night?
