First, since your battery got overheated, I would have it tested to make sure it's still good....some have a fuse at the battery terminal, and then follow the positive from the battery to the ignition switch, there may be a megafuse (I would guess 125/150 amp)

Rule number one, disconnect the negative battery cable before beginning a repair such as this. You might have fried the BCM (Body Control Module) and/or the PCM (Powertrain Control Module). Hope that helps! Jim
