Icon6 *sigh* my car wont start

ok so here is what happened, i changed the o ring on my injector cuz it was leaking gas. So no big thing right?? well i go to start it and nothing i just cranks, i see that the main relay is not clicking and fuel pump is not priming so i am confused and think ok wtf did i do so i look and one of the injector wire is pinched under the fuel rail. I fix the wire and try it again and nothing, so i think ok i blew something so i check all the fuses with my test light and everything is good under the hood so i move inside the car and check the under the dash ones and they r all good, soo i try a different main relay and nothing so i try one more and same. Now im starting to worrie and i try a diff ecu and nope still wont start i dont know wtf is wrong now, I think maybe its the pump so i drop the tank and check to see if im getting any power to the pump and im getting less than a volt with the "koef"(key on engine off) so i give the pump power from a batt and it works, so i know its not the pump. My bro checks if im getting spark and nothing so now i have no fuel or spark!! and have no idea what is going on. any help is be awesome thanks

Does the check engine light come on then go
off seconds later when you first turn on the key?

If not fuse # 14 is blown..


Also look through the oil filler hole while your bro is cranking it
and make sure the cam shaft is turning..
(ie: when the belt breaks,distributor doesn't turn= no fire or fuel..)

Is the battery fully charged?

so your car worked fine untill you changed your injector oring and pinched a wire? have you tried to swap the main relay out yet? may be possible you fried it when you pinched the injector wire??

Sounds like ECU or fuse but you said that you checked them.

Does the check engine warning light come on for 2 seconds after ignition is first turned on? Oil pressure warning light on or off?

take a test light and make sure your coild is good have someone sit in the car and have them turn the key on and off take a test light to the positive and negative side of the coil if nothing at all its a bad coil.

ill try that why my buddy comes over.

soo i was out checking the car and the only power im getting to the main relay is 12v's from pin 1 12v's from the batt, also i checked the ecu and im only getting power from one wire but not sure what it is im look for a layout to see what it is.

this is the pic of the pin thats getting power from the ecu

sorry for the bad pic cell phone camera
