Clean and tighten your battery terminals, then try again.
Is fan on with ignition on, a new problem or old problem ?

well?

don't do THAT again !

AFTER you go thru the fuse panel and check each and every fuse...
THEN take the battery OUT, and the battery TRAY, and look at all the fusible links that live under the battery. They are the power source that has 'hot wires' to the jumper pole behind the battery toward the door jamb. These fusible links are the REAL power source for the DASH displays, the cabin/dash lites, the ECM and the fuel injection.

Sounds like you toasted one...or more. Replace links with the same value. They are rated like fuses. Your FSM will have the link values or you can find the tables for the gauge wire in that particular circuit and install the appropriate link.
Good luck !
