Default Main Relay? help

so i did a complete pw/pl swap and dash ( wanted black interior), went to install the steering wheel and air bag so i unplugged hte negative battey terminal. installed it everything was good... the car turned on fine b4 i installed the steering wheel ...then i told my boy to turn the car on forgetting that the battery wasnt connected. obviously it didnt work so i went to connect the battery and it sparked.. (dumbass had the key on ON).. after that none of the electric worked... after a while the interior lights will work or the power locks for a little while but once i try to turn something on or turn the ignitionthe car goes dead... no electrric at all.. what do u guys think? its not the battery i connected my boys batt n no response either..

the main relay powers several engine sensors and the fuel pump, if the rest of the car is doing this as well, that's not the problem.

Connecting the battery with the ignition in Run shouldn't damage anything seriously. I'd check for a partially blown fuse in the underhood fuse box or bad/burnt connection at the key switch.
