Odd that the 100A would blow, if it did...replace it.
I would check the 40 and 60A ones that are similar to the 100. I forget which one exactly will especially cause this, but I suspect that you have a blown fuse still.

right now, if i short the terminal, the cel doesnt come on anymore.ill use the other post to help me out about the cel light. the problem is is that it wont start. ill take the cluster out and see if the bulb went out or not, ill replace it and see if it throws any error code.

i dont know why it blew. here's my story to tell. i was getting on the freeway, i stepped on it and i guess the fuse just blew so i slow down and pulled over. while pullin over, i smelt a burnt which was my turbo timer . after that, called the tow truck and tow it to my house and replace the fuse and never started again. i tried to see if there's any codes but then the cel doesnt come on anymore and i just dont know where to look at after checking the cel if it blew too or not.
sorry to make it so long.

alright, now i notice that there's no electric going through my spark plug wires. also, it seems like my there's no fuel delivering to my engine too. if anyone can help to locate my problem please help. i want to find out first and fix it before having to take the other suggestion which take it to the shop.

I'm no expert but blowing a 100amp fuse is a big deal.
So you replaced the fuse, its still good and nothing comes on?

For the fuel you can short Fp and B+ terminals in the check connector that will run the FP constantly Check your ECU and try to swap it with anotheone ECU should be fine because it got a separate fuse I think a 15amp in the engine bay fuse box near the battary so the chances of blowing it are slim

there's no one near to lend me their ecu to test it out so ill probably have it taken to the shop and see if it's the ecu or something else. about shorting the fp and b+ terminals, ill try that to see if it works as well.
