Unhappy Total power failure. Please help!

Thanks in advance!

2012 Street glide. Battery is sound. Just installed new apes. Checked new wiring prior to putting fairing back on. All was great! Radio, gauges, ignition, starter, throttle, lights, everything worked perfectly. Turned the ignition switch to the start position again to keep checking things as I put something back together each time. Everything lit up like normal for a split second and then DEAD. Nothing. Nada. Didn't move a thing.

Disconnected the battery and reconnected. No change.

Did a fuse check. All are good. The following fuses tested positive for power going to them with the ignition off. Radio mem, battery, ECM power, and the big 40 amp fuse next to the fuse box. The system relay and the lighting relay also showed constant power going to the top right post as you are looking at the fuse box. Nothing else changed when the ignition was turned to "on".

Did not see any loose wires anywhere.

Please tell me what else to check, or a resource to utilize, or something!!!! It's driving me nuts!

What was the last thing that you hooked up before it went dead? And you have double checked you new wiring?
How are you checking you fuses?

Yep Like Harleycruiser said, disconnect the last thing you reconnected and recheck.
