1995 Toyota Previa SC Electrical Prob

[Choppercopper]

Hello All,
This is my first post and I am looking for an answer from someone in the know about resetting the electric system for my 95 Previa SC. I recently replaced the battery as the old one showed classic signs of being worn down. I have done this before without incident and even cleaned the terminals recently and had both post connections removed while doing so.
My problem now is that I put a new battery in and the thing gives me absolutely no response after attempting to start the van. I cant even get an interior light to come on! I have checked all fuses and even pulled the 15 amp fuse in the panel to try to "reset" the computer. I do not have a remote alarm shutoff although I know the van has an alarm system if the doors are opened without the use of a key. I have a Haynes manual but this problem is not covered.
I am at a loss since I have checked everything twice...It acts as if there is no battery at all in it. Any help would be appreciated. Mike T.

Okay! I discovered the problem for anyone that is interested...It turns out that a secondary wire that is attached to the Positive side of the battery by a solderless connector was broken right at the insulation of the connector and was pulled out slightly. I discovered it by chance while re-checking all my connections. It must power up the computer or something because as soon as I fixed it the thing worked great. Thank God I found it cuz I called Toyota and they said there was no need to do a "reset" by pulling any fuses so I would have to bring it in. I am sure it would have cost me at least a couple hundred bucks....Mike T.
