what car do you have?

first look through all your fuses in the engine bay, your 100A battery will deffinitly be blown, then after that on there might be others, but mainly check that one, its supposed to blow so no others will.
after that if nothing still goes than go under the dash and look at all the fuses there.

if still nothing, probably fried ECU, seen it happen before, but let me know how it goes, and what car u have.

100amp main/alt fuses.

The big ones, replace them.
