Did I ruin my truck?

I have a 2011 XLT with the 3.7L v6. I'm and idiot and I was doing some electrical work under the dash and I think that there may have been a short.
Now the truck won't turn over and the blower motor doesn't work. I am also getting a "Service AdvanceTrac" message on the dash.
Is there anything I should check?
I can hear a relay clicking in the fuse box inside but nothing under the hood.
Thanks,
Dan

Start by checking for a blown fuse

I did, and there doesn't seem to be any blown. I have noticed the blower motor isn't working either, as well as the turn signals not staying on, and the ABS, Traction Control, Parking Brake, and Airbag lights are on.

How did you check the fuses? Did you use the fuse chart in the owner's manual to see which fuses protect which circuits?
