Default no engine light or radio and wont start.

help required please! Honda accord vtec 2.0 2001 model.

My car was running ok today but had the engine light on so I tried the paper clip test to see what was faulty but probably shorted the wrong connections on the odb connection and and now the car won't start.

when I put the ignition on I dont get the engine light on at all now and also the radio or electric ariel or fuel pump does not work.

the car does turn over but wont start. Have i broken the ECU or the main relay?

I have checked all the fuses and all ok. can anyone help? there are 3 fuse boxes and I have checked all the fuses, have I missed any fuses?

You can check the No. 46 (15A) fuse in the under-hood fuse box for the ECU, DLC (Data Link Connector/OBD II port), and Main Relay; but, if that fuse is not blown, you may have damaged the ECU.

For the radio, check the No. 9 (20A) fuse in the passenger side interior fuse box.
