I was wiring my electric fans through a temp switch and a relay and as soon as the temp switch kicked on the car shut off. Now the car wont start and the fuel pump wont even prime. When I try to connect to the Power FC on the laptop I get a connection error. I opened up the Power FC and I cant smell any burning or find any signs of it. Does anyone have an idea if it could be anything else? Is there an ECU fuse that could have blown? I really hope thats it otherwise Im f#ucked

Thank goodness, it was a blown fuse. I was just about to freak as this was the last thing I needed to do before I was ready to tune and drive. I will have to figure what I did wrong on the fan wiring to the relay. I will also be adding an inline fuse this time.
