Don't have another key unfortunately. Prior to the battery going completely dead the solenoid did click and the security light was working. It seems weird that since then none of this works with the new battery. The car has been garaged and off the road for about 5 years but I would start it and run it to full warmup a couple of times a year and even if I had to recharge the battery it would always start.

Ok, found a fuse panel in the side of dash inside passenger side door. Check fuse #26 labeled PKE and it was good, also check fuse #10 labeled crank p/n clutch which was also good.
I found 2 maxi fuse blocks in the engine compartment but did not pull any out. I did not find any auxiliary fuse panel or any fuse marked theft. I checked owners manual and it doesn't mention any theft fuse. |

The THEFT fuse is in the auxiliary fuse panel.
Remove the passenger side knee bolster and you will find it. I suspect that you will find it blown. Wiring does not usually go bad from a battery change. The Theft fuse is the prime suspect. Let me know what you find. ![]() Marty |

Thank you for all your help Marty. I'm not exactly sure what you are calling the knee bolster? Are you referring to the carpeted area next to the radio? I just read the entire owners manual and can't find any mention of it. Thanks, Ed
Do you have an illustration of it? |

My Ruby is up on the lift.
My service manuals are at the dealership. Here is what I found on the web. I am confident that your security system is the culprit, and that the fuse is the most likely point of failure. Let me know what you find. Marty " are two auxilary fuse blocks that are located on the passenger side of the dash. There are at the lower front of the radio receiver. IIRC, you have to remove the hush panel above the passenger side footwell. The interior lamp is attached to this panel and there is three screws that will release the panel." https://www.google.com/search?q=1993...F-JfYFM:&vet=1 |

Also check the 10 amp fuse in the primary panel upper left labeled ACC
This fuse has some connectivity to the anti theft, also the chime and hatch release. Marty |

Just pulled down the hush panel under the glove compartment. No fuses but lots of wires. Also, no fuse marked acc in main fuse panel. I took pictures of everything but I don't know how to post them, but I will try.
