Just changed my battery and alternator the car still doesn’ start have no power at all in the car nothing comes on
My car has 19999 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
You will need to first check to make sure the battery clamps are clean and getting good contact to battery post. If okay then check all major fuses are not blown and if they are all good then you may have a bad TIPM main fuse box. I would recommend further diagnosis is done by a mechanic like one from YourMechanic.
