Electrical problem please help!

What’s up guys I got a 04 tl base and there is absolutely no power to the car. Can’t even pop the trunk. What happened was the power steering leaked into the alternator, frying the alternator. I replaced the alternator and fixed the leak, still no luck. I ended up replacing the battery cables, grounds, main fuse under the hood and the ignition switch. Still no power and I’m lost on what to do next. I live in the northwest and would really like to move the car before snow. Is there any other fuses I could be missing? Any tips/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
p.s I know the battery is good

Do you have a multimeter? Time to start probing to see where power ends

Make sure your negative connection on your battery is completely tight. This happened to me after replacing brand new battery.
