Battery died while being stored.
Replaced battery with a new one.
Zero power going into the truck now?
Is there a main circuit breaker or something that needs to be reset?
Thanks

Only thing I can suggest is grab the wire bundle that goes into the engine bay fuse box and give it a gentle wiggle back and forth and/or wiggle/tap/pull the fuses in the box that have to do with the ignition. Check for any blown fuses in both engine bay and driver side fuse panel. Worked on a friends Pathfinder. Damn gremlins...

Rodents chew through wires?
Excessive rust/corrosion on ground cable (check both ends).?

sambo,

It could be security system related. There are 2 attachments in this thread that talk about it: http://www.vehicross.info/forums/showthread.php?threadid=25516

Try turning the key quickly ON-OFF-ON. If that doesn't work, try ACC-OFF-ACC. If that's the problem, you should get either a chirp or lights flashing to let you know that you just disabled the alarm system.

It's not likely that this is the issue since the security system is supposed to just disable the starter ... not cut all power. But, it's one of those easy things to try & costs nothing.

There is a reset button on the inside door fuse panel. All set.

Is it the grey thing at the top of the fuse panel with a red button?
