MSP ECU Wiring Prob

Well I tried hooking up my Blitz Power Meter last night and took the ecu out of the floorboard and I had thought I found pin 58 to hook up to the speedometer wire. Which I think I hooked it up to pin 59 which is the knock sensor. If you have dealt with this before you know how easy it is to mess up. I mean both wires are green. Anyways I go to start the car and it won't turn over. Anyone have any clue as to a fuse of some sort to look for? I was also thinking I might have done something to upset the alarm also. Please give me some ideas of what to try. My wife will be home later and will be pissed if I don't fix this.
 
If it's the alarm, the reset button is underneath the dash on the driver's side...it's a little button that you have to feel around for.
 
Also I couldn't find the pin #60 for the O2 sensor. I swear that when I look at it and count down there isn't anything in the #60 pin hole.
 
One thing to do is to put the wiring back to "stock" (assuming you have not done this already).

I hope that while you were wiring up the Blitz...you had done it with the Battery DISCONNECTED? regardless.... get it back to stock... reset the ECU by disconnecting the battery... then try to start her back up.
 
Not sure what the issue may be, but I don't have the resources to look it up right now. Maybe later. Sorry.
 
I already put the wiring back to stock and nothing happens.....is there a fuse I need to be lookin for? Need help here. Thanks!
 
Update:
Well I checked the ECU and noticed I didn't have the plastic lid on it and thought that maybe it wasn't making a good connection. I put the ecu back upright and put the battery terminal back on, then tried to start the car. Nothing! I noticed that I have a check engine light staying on when I try to start the car. Am I showing a CEL? I did a search about the check engine light and it say its a CEL and to take it to a autozone to have it cleared. My car won't go anywhere unless its towed right now. Is there a way to clear it without going to autozone? Also when I let it sit for a while and then try to start it, it will really sound like its trying to start just doesn't sound like it has any fuel. Then after trying to start it about a few minutes later I don't hear the starter click anymore. Please post if you have any ideas
 
Well, if it's not turning over is that really an ECU problem? I know I'm not helping you out too much here, but there must be some sort of fuse, I don't think the ECU can prevent the car from turning over, can it?

Good Luck!
 
I have checked all the fuses inside the car and under the hood. Nothing is blown and the only ones I can't tell are the ones that are huge and solid plastic. Thanks though guys. Still need some more ideas.
