Question Power problems...

Just bought a 88 rx7 and wanted to know if anyone knew where the main power relay or module islocated? The guy I bought from was jumping the Battery and switched up the cables(negative to positive/ positive to negative) and I think it fried something. It's gettin no power from a charged battery. No lights or power windows etc... The motor only has 76000 miles... Help please!?!

There's a wire running from the battery positive post to the engine fuse box. Check to see if this wire has constant voltage at the side of the fuse box which is closest to the battery.
