New Battery, no power to any thing

[eyesrightphoto]

2019 1500 bighorn. Purchased a new battery, installed it, and drove it home, the truck sat for two days without moving and now it won't start, not a light, not a click. Brought the battery into the house, put it on the tester that I have and it is fully charged. Took it back out to the truck, installed it and still nothing. the truck is completely dead. Is there a main power fuse that I can check?

I think all the main power fuses are on the big terminals next to the fuse box. Could be a bad ground too.

Do any electronics work? Dash, lights, etc?

No clicks, no door chimes, nothing.

So I opened up the fuse box, and one of the terminals had a loose nut. For sh!ts and giggles, I tightened it and everything now works. It was the second nut from the right.

This has been reported and the solution more than a few times here. It may be a good idea to proactively check these nuts on the fuse box

It's going to be part of my routine maintenance from now on

Put some thread locker on it and you don't have to keep checking it.
