I got the necessary upper underhood fuse box and wiring harness with the upfitter aux switches. followed the instructional video on you tube by middleton motorsports. i only removed the negative cabel, removed the upper fuse block, replaced it with the new one for the aux switches, reconnected battery and nothing... i have not installed the aux switches or anything yet. just the upper fuse block. after no start, i changed back to my old upper fuse block and still not start??? any ideas without going through ford? They want us to upfit our broncos but i'd probably get gigged on this...

Triple check all your connections are tight and the fuse block is fully seated. You dont have it installed correctly somewhere.

Positives and negatives correct? Dumb question but seen it done, by myself. Blew up my cars computer when I was 16 doing that,along with other things. My respect for electricity was learned.
