Last weekend I tried running my diagnostic codes on my 95' GSR. I eventually figured it out but before I did I messed something up. Instead of jumping just the "Service Connector", I jumped the other 3 prong connector, which is right next to it (I think its the SRS service check connector), to the service connector. Basically I hooked both of them up together and by doing so it created a spark. Like I said I eventually figured out how to run the codes but when I tried starting my car after it wouldn't start. I checked all the fuses and they were fine. I tried and check a few other things like the starter but nothing seemed to work so I gave up. The next morning I tried again and it just started by chance. The only thing was my electrical system was acting wierd after that. My dome and map lights wouldn't work, and whenever I turned on my radio the light on my instrument column that showed if one of my doors were open comes on. Oh and my antenna won't go up anymore. But I was still able to drive it all last week and even up until about an hour ago. But my car just stalled in the middle of the street and it won't start again. Does anybody know what I'm talking about or has anybody experienced the same thing before?

Can anybody help me out and respond to my thread. I'm stranded at my girlfriends house because my car won't start. I just ordered a new ecu off ebay because I'm just going to assume that's the problem. Nothing else seems to work.

Ordering the new ECU should solve your problems. You're lucky you didn't blow the 50amp ignition fuse. I'd say by jumping the two prongs together you shorted your ecu, which is why your radio turns the open door light on....
Start by swaping the ecu and go from there....

Thank you. At least somebody responded to my question. I'm pretty sure that will do the trick. If not then I'll have no choice but to take it to a mechanic.
