car is completly dead no electric

I was installing a basss tube today and was attempting to hook up the wire to the postive terminal on the battery after it was conected i saw that i had no electric in the car at all. I disconnected it and reconnected and still no power. i checked all the fuses in the fuse box none of them are blown. The car is completly dead electrically nothing happens whenm i turn the key no headlights radio etc... any of idea what could have blown. I appreciate any thoughts

Try checking all your fusible links down at the starter and up near the battery.

check your fusible links? (at the starter where all your hotwires connect)

I found the problem well i am not sure what the problem was but I reconnected the battery cleaned the contacts which did not appear that dirty. I tightened up a few wiires comming off battery cables which the bolts were a little lose not very. The car started up fine afterwards. Thanks for the advice.
