No electrical power anywhere in car. Turned on ignition charging lights came on starter turned once or twice then everything just quit - no dashboard lights no headlights no hazards - nothing working electrically - checked main under hood fuse box - fuses seemed ok - acts like may be under dash fuse problem - also checked cables on battery - seemed ok but a little buildup & positive cable a little loose
You've rules out many causes, I would have the battery load tested...I belive autozone will do this for free. If the battery is bad then replace it then have your charging system checked to make sure it wasn't the alternator that killed the battery in the first place.
Check battery connections with a meter.

Sizzling is not good!! Coming from under the dash is definitely not good. The relay that controls the starter is called a solenoid and is physically located on the starter. If the car started OK before the battery went dead I think it's safe to say the solenoid is not the problem.
If you yourself can operate a voltmeter, Or find someone that can do this, the only thing I can suggest is to try to find what cooked under the dash. (No easy task).
You can jumper the starter by getting a device at an auto parts store called a remote starter switch.
Follow the instructions that come with it.
Hope this helps Good luck Loringh.

Possible solution. It could be the belt tensioner. It might not hold the belt tight enough to have a consistent charge to the battery through the alternator. I had to replace the one on my 91 accord and that solved my problem.

Try cleaning the battery connectors at both ends and make sure the ground at the frame is clear of rust. If that check out, drop the starter and have it bench tested

If you only have a problem with the dash lights on the right side of the dash to the passenger side there is a lid to take off and there are a fuse for the fuse 10 10Amps this is the illumination of the panel. Thansk good luck
