I'm gonna guess that not everything's back together.

everything back together. I found a chopped fuse that may cause from the alternator wire that got sparked against some metal..i replace that fuse that you see below and it still not start.i put a screwdriver inside the tip of the coil pack while holing it close to a bolt and it made a big spark and it never turn over again. I dont know what to do now..

the fuse below

got chopped and i replaced it but still wont start. I was checking for sparks with a screwdriver inserted into the coil pack and put it close to the screw that the coil pack bolt onto and it made a big spark just like electric wire spark against something and from then all I'm getting is just light inside the car. The horn works, headlight, interior lights etc but now the engine not turning over anymore..any solutions that would help? I dont have much cash to take to a shop or to the steelership.

ok, so i took the car to the dealer over the weekend but they didn't checked it until today. They said they did did a run down on it and said that i have no compression on three cylinders.. But when i brought the car to them, there was nothing coming from the key when i turn it, no crank not turning over nothing..its like having the battery disconnected but in this case all the lights working and the key was reading pretty fine so how they did compression test if the engine not cranking or turning over? It was turning over befor but i was testing for sparks with a screwdriver inserted in the tip of one coil and rest it close to the spark plug bolt on the valve cover and have someone turn the key then after the key turn i got this big gash from where the connecter plug into the top of the coil. I didn't see any signs of nothing burn but after that, i didn't get nothing like having the engine turn over or crank like before..i still check for blown fuses but all seems well.. I'm still confused how could they test for compression with the engine not turning over?

Why not call and ask them?

Maybe you blew a fuse somewhere and they found it. Maybe they did a leak down test and realized there was no compression. Maybe they turned the engine over by hand and felt no air coming out of the spark plug tubes.
