Default electrical madness

i got a crx and the underdash harness was hacked so i replaced it, well now im not getting any power to the ECU, ive rechecked everything atleast 10 times and everything is hooked up correctly. my main relay is bad but i only thought that controlled the fuel pump, im wondering if that will keep the ecu from getting power, the only other thing im thinking is the only thing in the car that i havnt replaced is the engine bay fuse box, so im thinking maybe that could be bad for some reason, any help is greatly appreciated
