Default No power

Hey all, wondering if anybody would have some advice on how to fix my problem. I have a 97 HX that up until recently, ran just fine. I bought it with an clifford alarm already installed, that has never worked properly anyway. A month or so ago, the car died on the way to dinner. Would crank, but no fuel. Went to the dealer and got the fuel pump relay, which I was told was under the steering column but wasn't. As I pulled apart the panels from under the dash, something in the alarm went bonkers. After I replaced the relay, I get the typical beeps from the ignition when the key is in, but no power anywhere else. It won't crank, lights won't come on, doors don't lock, etc... So, I removed the alarm and reconnected the wires, but still have the same problem. The battery has full power, but I get nothing. I know it's a long shot, but if anybody else has had this issue before and can possibly help, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Have you cleaned the battery connectors and the battery ground wire attached in the engine bay and also checked for blown fuses under both the hood and dash?

i suspect that the alarm disabled some things. you need to get a hold of the manufacturer's users guide to figure out if you might have inadvertantly done something.
