Default D16Y8-T won't start after airbags deployed from bottoming out

K, last week I got in technically a "front-end accident" (car bottomed out at 30mph through a section of road that was dug up and replaced with sand, front crossmember is all bent up, search for the thread under my name), so my airbags deployed. My radiator was punctured, but other than that my motor is fine.

I haven't tried to start the car until now. It just cranks but won't turn over and idle.

I've heard that when airbags deploy, they blow out fuses? I'm going to check and see if my fuel pump turns on when I put the key to the on position, be right back.

WOOHOO! Right on bro. Replaced the fuel pump fuse and she started right up.

I did not know that the fuel pump fuse and the SRS fuse were one and the same.

Good call Honda!

ehh, just gotta replace the lower crossmember, radiator, windshield, airbags and re-work the upper radiator support and she'll be back on the streets.
