      Did you measure for 12v at the firewall?

      If power is not is not there and you have it at the battery (in trunk);

      -check the second smaller wire running from the positive terminal in the trunk.
      That wire is fused. could be blown. Fuse is located between battery (granted its in trunk) and rear seat/area.

        That is true. The fuse is a flat metal looking rectangle about 1 foot from the back of the rear seats. That would not cause a no crank though, just a no start.
