I know isn't it Chuck..

Make sure your battery is charged and connected correctly, charging from no information that is all I can say :S.... Also The Fuses you might wanna look at...

well, this should be fun to watch.

seriously, if you expect help you need to provide more information. there is a myriad of possible solutions to your problem.

how about tryin to fill everyone in on exactly what work you preformed, what solenoid you broke, and what you have checked so far.....

Don't be such a martyr.

Give some ed info if you want help...

If you want help, give us an intelligible post with a particular question contained therein. Just saying you have no power and the solenoid broke doesn't tell us squat.

(Besides, I seriously doubt the pissed you is any match for the pissed me.....)

Since we still don't have a lot of info I'd suggest starting at the battery and working from there. You know you've got power to the battery, so you've got to work away from the battery until you find a point you've got no power. Do you have power to the soleniod? Have you connected the solenoid correctly? Have you connected the fusible links to the correct side of the solenoid? The fusible links (all of those smaller wires that attach to the large stud on the solenoid) MUST connect to the side of the solenoid electrically (not necessarily physically) closest to the battery (in other words, the side that is hot all the time). If you connect 'em to the wrong side of the solenoid you'll have no power to anything.

Have you got a good solid ground to the engine AND body? An electrical circuit must be complete in order to function. If the ground isn't good nothing will work.

If you've got your wits about you enough to brag about being bipolar you're not really dangerous.

Now back to the subject at hand...

superpinto
When i read what you posted at first, i thought to myself,,,,,,,,,,,,"well now,, what would no power have to do with an SEFI swap" Next the confussion was furthered because of a random tossed in "and the solenoid just broke"

Im like ,, hu? does he really mean that his power door locks dont work? or does he mean starter solenoid?

then,, out of the blue,, you said you changed the wiring harness under the dash.

Go boil a pot of coffee,, grab your beer/smokes or what ever keeps you company at the keyboard and take all this from the top again.
Dont leave anything out.

One example of a bad post i remember off hand a looong time ago was a guys keyless entry was not working. Too easy i thought, just run though some wiring diagrams. Come to find out he knew all along that he installed an alarm system and wired it into the keyless.

Now thats BS to hold back information like that. Sometimes i think people will post problems not telling the whole truth because they either
A- do not know what the hell is going on nor can they explain what they did
or
B-they are keeping the full story secret because there might be some rigging up done.

All you need to do is pull up a chair and start typing.
Also,, go to electrical tech or my diy link and there are a tone of wiring diagrams you can run with to compare what you have to whats in writing.

so,, balls in yoru court. We dont usually ask a million questions to get to the starting line. We rely on you to provide ALL info of what you knwo you did on the front end. From there, most of the work is done and what remains is troubleshooting.
