I have a 2004 Ford Escape that the battery died on. I had the battery replaced. When I went to jump start my Escape from another car everything started up fine but something happened and my Escape's radio didn't turn on, the interior dome lights didn't come on, I can't can't use the remote to unlock/lock the doors, can't use the button on the door to lock/unlock unless the key is turned on, and the radio no longer works even while driving. I didn't smell any burnt plastic, All my fuses seemed fine and not fried. What can I do now?
Optional Information:
2004 Ford Escape V-6 3.0 liter

This is a problem with the alternator. Diode rectifiers and voltage regulator replacement will give this baby a 14.2 voltage output. In this 3L V6 SUV removal of the alternator requires removing the right tire, the right axis and undercovering to reach the 6G alternator. It is a 133mm rectifier with a motorcraft, The serpentine belt is better removed from the bottom. Also keep a bucket on hand to recover the oil from the transmission.

I have a 2002 escape with the same problem. My alternator went bad and was replaced but the exact same components are not working now. I have checked the fuses and they are fine also. I need some guidance too.
I have the same problem with the radio. Ford tried to say that it was from boosting incorrectly. I have recently found out that it is a ford electrical problem. Is this true?
