There is also a chance you fried some electronics, ie ECU.

if you have the check engine light in the dash hooked up, turn the car on to aux and if the check engine light doesnt come on (and the fuel pump doesn't primes), you fried your ecu. if you did, take the cover off and look for a burn spot or a burnt trace on the board. if it is, i'd say take it to a eletronic place that would be able to fix it, or a tv shop like i'm going to do, but i know the guys that work there, so.
