Try checking to see if the battery has any power. You most likely grounded out your electrical system. Check all grounds, and any connection you can find.

Moving to OEM Tech.

Check the connections at the starter solenoid. And all grounds. Check for power with a multi meter.

I would check the starter relay.
Its on the fenderwell next to the battery.
Your battery cable attaches to it.
You might have gotten water in it and shorted it.
