94 civic won't start: electrical problem

[civicSIcoupe]

Alright so I have 94 civic si coupe, and it wont start. The battery is fine, all the fuses are good, and I'm kinda lost. I'm beginning to become a mechanic, but haven't touched down on electrical much yet so i don't know what to look for. I've tested my battery and its good. Nothing lights up when i turn the key on, nothing electrical works whatsoever; no horn, interior lights, alarm, anything. The car started and worked fine about a week ago then when I went to start it today nothing worked.

Do the headlights work? If so, check the ignition switch:

Check the battery ground wire connection in the engine and that the battery connectors are clean and tight. Double check 80A fuse 41 under the hood.

i replaced my battery terminals, cleaned my poles on my battery, and re-stripped my ground wire, negative, and positive connectors, cleaned it all off. And it worked. The funny thing is, there was no corrosion, i guess just bad connections.

Thanks for your help Ron!
