We just stopped on our way south from NY and when I turned the key...NOTHING. Main fuse Looks ok...AAA is coming but I don't know what they can do. Ideas?

Undo the battery connections, scrap the posts, then put back on tightly. If you get nothing, it sounds like the battery.

Cycle ignition switch.
Check other fuses.
Hopefully AAA will have VOM, battery could be issue. I'm guessing this thing has some relays that get powered when the key is turned, may want to look there also.

I'm glad you had a simple fix. It is terrible to be way out of town and broke down. Tighten that battery with a wrench rather than a screw driver. Safe travels!
