ummm, whatever it is, it can't be good. always disconnect your battery before messing with that stuff. Pointless advice right now given your current situation (no pun intended).

Check all the fuses obviously, thats the first place to start...

Well, the first place to start is to make sure whatever smoked is no longer attached.

Yes, and remember that there are three fuse boxes.

where's the pun?

he has a "current" situation. Yeah, quite the reach.

well i found the problem it was
fuse #20 FEM, DATC, Cluster, Brake Shift Interlock,REM
i cant believe one red fuse shut down the whole car

That's why I didn't think it was a fuse since so much stuff shut down. Glad you found the problem.

I got it. It was quite subtle; the best kind!

if there are any exposed wires, then you better get that fixed first before messing around with anything else.
