Default Fuel issue (solved)

I was finishing up wiring in obd2 injector clips to my harness. My car is a 94 civic hatch with RDX injectors. Being in a rush I forgot to tape the #2 injector wires after insoldered them. I proceeded to start my car and I noticed I didn't tape them. When I grabbed them I accidentally touched the two together while the car was running. The car instantly shut off. I checked all the fuses and none where blown. Tried to restart and it just cranks and I can't hear the fuel pump prime(Walbro 255). I have a spare main relay I haven't swapped out and tried yet.

What could be the possible damaged parts being the two wires touched each other while the vehicle was running?

I believe the Injectors are controlled directly by the ECU. Shorting the wires together could damage part of the ECU if I am correct.

hook up another ECU. Since your running different injectors, you will need a socketed ecu.

Probably the best thing to do is go to whoever tuned it and use his ECU to see if your ECU is toast. (which im sure something is burned out)
