My car is a 1990 Ford Taurus with a 3.0 V6 engine and has about 165,000 miles on it and I got into my car the other day to go to the store and when Igot to the store I went inside to do what I had to do then when I got done I came to leave and my car wouldn't start at all. No lights, no radio, no horn, no clock, no nothing. When I went to start the car it didn't click or nothing. It didn't make a noise or anything. We checked the battery and there is enough juice to the battery. I am thinking it is something electrical but I'm not sure thats why I need help on figuring out what it is.

You should invest in a good digital multimeter. It will help you trace down the problem.

Since you get absolutely no power, you will need to determine whether it's the ignition switch or not.

If you turn on your headlights, do they work? If they work, then it's not the battery. The next place to look is the neutral safety switch, and then the ignition switch.
