Welcome!!
It could be a fusible link, but maybe your ignition switch or a loose connection (or open wire) between that and the battery. Have a test light or volt meter? Follow the main 12V circuit from the battery to the junction block on the firewall to the fusebox to the ignition switch. Have a wiring diagram of the car yet? It will be very helpful. Laeving the wipers on in mid sweep would not have caused the problem - just was a coincidence.
