You've probably already checked this, but when I was doing my ICE install I came to power up the car and it was totally dead. What had happened was one of the +ve batt connections (the thinner one that powers the electrics, as opposed to the thick one for the starter) hadn't been secured. Because it was under the rubber safety cap I hadn't spotted it.

A long shot I know, but worth doing a quick visual inspection to make sure the power leads are all secure.

Hope you sort it.

Mike
