I have a buddy trying to help him fix a issue of no start. He connected his battery up backwards and fried something.

We tested Key ignition and it seems to be good.
We tested 5033264 — RELAY, ECM MAIN and it is switching and seems good.
Checked fuses and no blown fuses. Is there any other things to check?

That is exactly what happened. Main wiring harness fuse. Had to reference the motor harness diagram. Then found a pic online that showed a similar motor. My buddy checked the fuse and it was blown. Replaced it and he is back in business.
