Stuck in limp after blown fuse

I’ve got an 02 with 5.4l. I recently replaced the coil and connector/wire on cylinder 7. On my way to work the new connector wire made contact with the metal exhaust tubing leaving the throttle body area until it melted and shorted out. This blew a fuse F30. After a bit of digging around I found the grounded wire and blown fuse, replaced the fuse and removed the melted cable leaving coil 7 with no lead/connection just to get it home. The truck is now stuck in limp with multiple codes thrown, prior it had only 2 codes for the misfiring coil on cylinder 7. Those went away and truck was running perfect prior to the ignition wire melting to the exhaust tube. I can’t figure out what else is wrong to get it out of limp.
Codes are;
P1451 evap vent valve circuit
P0443 evap A circuit
P0755 shift solenoid
P1747 EPC solenoid
P0357 iginition G
P0155 O2
P0135 O2
P0355 ignition E
P1000 OBD not ready
P0758 shift solenoid
P1760 EPC solenoid



Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated

Checks out good, went ahead and swapped anyway with no change.

Oops, make that BJB F23 (under the hood).

If it "looks okay", then use your meter and check it to see if it getting and passing power with the ignition switch in RUN.

That fuse has to supply power to all of those circuits or else all the truck will be able to do is limp along.

Well down the list of possibilities... if that fuse is blown.

Until he replies back regarding the state of BJB F23, it's kind of pointless to speculate.
