I put in seed in electrum and new password it opened a wallet with zero balance .does this mean the end of the road or could it be another wallet ? I’m sure that the funds were originally sent so should I of put in old password ? I was told elsewhere that I should put new password for it .would it of opened this wallet if it was not used before, the history Is blank as well thanks

The password does not matter - it is only for encryption.
if the seed you used restores an empty wallet you have either a false seed or never received a transaction.
