Default 97 Cherokee fire

I have a 97 Cherokee. 5 speed 4.0. It was recently in a fire caused by the power steering pump. The only thing really burnt was the harness for the injectors and the injectors themselves. I bought an auto Cherokee that had been wrecked and took the harness and injectors out and swapped them over. I'm not getting any fire or fuel pressure. On top of that, the fuse panel on passenger side under the glove compartment is completely dead. Looking for some guidance. Thanks in advance

The melting of the insulation on the wires would have caused wire to wire contact and shorting. Thereby blowing fuses. Check the fuses in the power distribution center(PDC) located on the passenger side underhood.
