Default i need some help fast

my friend with a 95 civic hatch with an itr swap has this problem...and i checked all the fuses even the ecu one and the main relay and i can't figure it out...heres what he said

"The other day i was wiring in a cd player. Two wires sparked and i thought nothing of it. Then when i went to start the car the fuel pump didn't turn on. First, I switched out the fuel pump, nothing. Then i checked every fuse on the entire car (as far as i could tell), still nothing. Then i checked the fuel pump relay, again nothing. I have run out of ideas on what this might be. If you have any ideas, thoughts, or suggestions please chime in, I need your help badly. Thanks in advance."

"no spark...and we hardlined the fuel pump so it'll work but even with the fuel pump getting power, the car won't crank. what could this be?" -Marcel

it's a fuse. visual checking might not work, pull each one out that has to do w/ starting the car and use a multimeter on it for a continuity test.

It's a main power/ground problem. It's not cycling the main relay, which powers both pump and ECU.
