Bad news well kind of today I changed the oil filter air filter fuel filter all that put a battery in there. At first no nothing and I forgot I didn't plug anything in column wise when I installed it last week so I connected the blinker plug and my hazards turn on good sign my headlights worked my break lights worked all so good I than plug in the ignition module and I removed the battery wire to the dizzy so I can crank it and distribute the oil through the engine. When I go to turn the key to on I get power radio kicks on all that. I attempt to crank it I hear it start than nothing. I notice small amount of smoke coming from the ignition module and now it's like I have no power at all my headlights don't work no radio no nothing it's like I have a dead battery. Im thinking I blew a fusible link and have no Power to the fuse box but have no idea, but really haven't checked. It got to late but any one have any ideas? Did I not ground something on the ignition module or high beam switch. Could it have been a faulty ignition module the car has sat with that column out of it. Just looking for some were to start. Thanks
 
Or is there another main battery fuse somewhere
