Why would there be no power on a 96 blazer battery is good fuseable link is good all fuses check out in the interior block is there a fuse box in the engine bay?

I have a 92 blazer and there isn't a power distribution box in the engine compartment. You may have to check power comming to the fuse box itself. The are probably a couple of slots labeled "batt" or "battery" check those with a volt meter. If you used the little kit you get at Wal-Mart, chain auto stores, etc., all you are checking is the fuse is good -- not if power is getting to it. Take it to a qualified mechanic and check for a parasitic draw (or key off draw)
