Truck won't start after replacing battery

I blew the main fuse while trying to jump start the truck. I've replaced the fuse and the battery. It will now turn over, but won't start. It's acting like it's not getting gas. I looked in the manual about the immobilization thing, and the indicators show that this is not the problem. What do I do?

It sounds like you connected the battery jumper cable backwards which happens to the best of us. I would continue checking the fuses of the car becasue any of them can be blown here is a guide to help you get the job done and the fuse box locations.

you could have burned up a relay as well.

Here are the fuse panel diagrams (below)

Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.
