Angry Turns Over but won't start

I inadvertently dropped a large wrench across the battery post when I closed the hood of a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7L. The truck was running but it shut off right away. Now the truck turns over but will not start. Is there some fusible link that would prevent the truck from receiving a spark or did I fry something and I am in to a bigger job. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Start by checking ALL the fuses in both the underhood box and under the dash.

Most have a fusable link that connects the entire fuse block under the hood. Big soft red wire. Check for +12vdc
