Default 99 coupe main relay problem, help pls

My car did not start this morning, so I was trying to take the main relay out. But I was so stupid not to remove the battery cable first. When I took inside part of the relay out, some metal legs touched, I saw a spark, after that, my car still crank but not start, and my CEL was not coming on when I first turn the key to "on".
did I mess up something other than the relay?? thx (all other light in the odometer area are functioning properly, and I checked my fule pump fuse which is fine).
BTW, any one know the part number of the main relay. I found it on rockauto.com 39400S84A01, but it said "not accord 2dr". main relays for 2dr and 4dr are not interchangable????
thx alot, guys

If there is no CEL when you turn on the car, the ECU must've gotten jacked. Either that, or maybe just a fuse(s) if you're lucky, but I wouldn't get your hopes up. I'd take a look at your fuses under the hood just to be sure.
