What fuse did I blow?

So I just installed the alternator, started it up and it worked. Found a bolt and tried to fasten it, but had to wedge the alternator slightly. I pried and saw a spark from the wire with the arrow. Now nothing is working, no remote controls. I assume I need to change a fuse. Which #?

On the J series, that wire typically goes to the Main PCB in the upper passenger side of the engine bay, where the main fuse, among various others are located. On our TLs, I don't think that actual board exists in that location, so I would imagine it's just routed back around to the under-hood fuse panel. If NOTHING on your car is working, I wonder if you blew the main ~120a fuse

it did end up being the 120v fuse. I soldered it back a little (first time ever touching a solder) because that fuse has 2 fail points, and hopefully if need be the second one will work.


Hope to get another fuse if I ever order the 3 and 4 gear pressure switches. Fuse wasn’t going to come in time for me so had to improvise
