After replacing the battery; the terminal connectors were placed on the wrong terminals causing the in-line fuse on the positive terminal cable to burn out. After replacing the cable and attaching cable to battery once again there is absolutely no power from the battery being transferred to the vehicle. Is there a reset switch that needs to be reset in order for power to go from the battery to the vehicle. There are no lights what-so-ever, dome, hood, headlights etc.., I have checked, and there are no other fuses blown to replace that I can see.
